Bill C-60, Canada's copyright reform bill, can be a challenge to read since it adds some provisions to the current Copyright Act, while amending or repealing others. Many thanks to a blog reader who has worked to develop a complete Copyright Act as it would appear if Bill C-60 were to be adopted in its current form. I've also added some links for easier access to the key substantive changes. Comments and/or corrections welcome (we're working on some spacing issues, particularly for the Mac).
