The Charlatan: Mixed reviews for copyright bill
Cara Stern

University students may be negatively affected by the recently proposed Bill C-61, which, if passed as law, would amend current Canadian copyright laws.

Bill C-61 is an amendment to the Copyright Act, which intends to protect the rights of both the creator and user of copyrighted materials.

However, controversy has erupted due to the possible negative consequences for the users, specifically students and educators.

“There are a lot of clauses in this bill that can have a serious impact on post-secondary education and how students learn,” said Zach Churchill, national director for the Canadian Alliance of Student Associations.
