This is a disappointing paper that, while attempting to represent copyright in a Canadian perspective, draws a great deal on international sources, including U.S. court rulings. Strictly party line, the paper does not (other than a caricature in the first sentence) consider the possibility that other views exist. It is ditressing to see a paper recommend that a permission form be completed merely to create a link to an online resource, a complete omission of Creative commons and other automatic permissions, no mention whatsoever of open access publishing (ironic, considering the source), and a drive-by endorsement of site licensing.
