CBC and Billboard provide some additional coverage of the copyright consultation to be announced next week. Word is that the roundtables will begin immediately with at least two planned next week in Vancouver and Calgary with more to follow across the country. The first is apparently scheduled for the Vancouver Public Library on Monday, July 20th. The roundtables are by invitation-only but broader online consultations – likely to include both a submission process and online discussion forum – will be launched on the same day.
