Canada and the U.S. share a long border, and we tend to focus on the similarities between these two countries. But each country is unique, and one area we could all learn more about is how their copyright laws differ. CCM201. Canadian Copyright Law Principles can help bridge the gap in your knowledge, no matter what side of the border you're on.
Join Canadian copyright lawyer Lesley Ellen Harris of Copyrightlaws.com for this exploration of:
- the background and composition of Canadian copyright law
- the criteria for copyright protection (e.g. originality and fixation)
- what works are protected, and how to protect them
- ownership of works
- protection of rights and duration of protection
- exploitation of rights
- copyright infringement and remedies
- differences between Canadian and U.S. copyright law
Lesley will also cover copyright law reform in Canada.
This online course begins October 17th and will run through November 7th. You'll participate in three live sessions and an asynchronous discussion list, review topical readings, and take a brief quiz that will test your end-of-course knowledge. Most of all, you'll be introduced to a community of colleagues for whom copyright is an important issue.
