section 12 of the charter
let it pass and ill turn myself in for the DVDRIPPED pre 1958 films i have that have no copyright yet violate the anti circumvention aspect of said new law.
Then i will ask whomever becomes my lawyer to file a section 12 charter violation: CRUEL and UNUSAL PUNISHMENT.
It is quite unusual to punish someone for a crime when its supposed to stop piracy and yet something that isn’t pirated I am being punished for.
Pretty amazing with all the lawyers and legal dummies them CONSERVATIVES have up there and they toss this out.
Also i would then also have to add pain and suffering as a counter suit as well as damages.
might start a legal defense fund for others in simular occurances ( aka ill send you the 6$ for that call to get a free half hour lawyer call ) LIKE WTF IS THAT ABOUT? YUP IT COSTS YOU 6$ to TALK TO a LAWYER FOR 30 minutes FREE. nothing free about it. )
