Last Friday, I participated in a 40 minute debate on copyright on TVO's the Agenda. The discussion focused on the events of the past two weeks, the primary concerns with a Canadian DMCA, and the influence of the U.S. on the Canadian copyright process. Other participants included David Basskin, Mathew Ingram, and Robert Thompson. The full video (scroll through about 15 minutes) has now been posted online.
