Delayed...again

The bill to change Canada's Copyright Act will be delayed another week, according to the Globe and Mail.
"With Parliament set to break soon for summer, however, two sources close to the matter indicated the legislation is expected to be left to die by the minority Conservative government, rather than attempting to implement any controversial rules or penalties for illegal downloading."

This is probably a wise move. This type of legislation is a bridge too far for a minority government (thank goodness).
