We're already fucked with ACTA. Anyways, I already signed the above petition, not sure how helpful it will be.

This is NOTHING like SOPA
The problem with SOPA was not that it would make piracy harder.

A reply email from Libby Davies Quote:
Dear friends,
Thanks so much for your email on Bill C-11 that is currently before Parliament. We've had hundreds of emails, including yours, expressing people's concerns about this flawed Bill and I've heard this loud and clear!
The NDP members on the Committee dealing with the Bill have been working really hard to get changes, including on the digital lock provisions, to ensure there is a balance between creator rights, and rights of the consumer to access content for which they are legally entitled.
I’d also like to share with you the link to the page on my website where you can view my speech in the House of Commons on Bill C-11, back in November when I had the opportunity to speak to the Bill:
Libby expresses her concerns about the Copyright Modernization Act | Libby Davies - MP for Vancouver East
I really appreciate you've taken the time to email and state your concerns as this helps us push harder on changes that are needed!
Yours sincerely,
Libby
