The Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement generated wide media coverage in Canada yesterday as a web-based press conference sponsored by Quebec's Union des consommateurs (I was a participant) and a Charlie Angus press conference put the issue in the spotlight. Media coverage includes articles from CBC.ca, Canadian Press, and Radio-Canada. InternetNews.com also covered the press conference.

Not wide enough. The more people that know about this, the better for everyone (except the lobbyists)
Agreed. There is not a word in the Globe, the Star, or the Post.

not lengthy enough
Don’t forget the lobbyists. And the churches, and the church lobbyists, and the oligarchic media baron lobby church collusionists.
This conspiracy has no beginning and no end.
