Sunday, October 5: Funeral for Bill C-61
Thanks to Raphael, Fair Copyright for Canada:
On September 7, 2008, An Act to Amend the Copyright Act - known to his friends as “Bill C-61″ - died prematurely during an election call. The Vancouver chapter of Fair Copyright for Canada will be holding a funeral on Sunday, October 5 to remember the life and times of Bill C-61.
At 12:00pm, a funeral procession bearing the coffin of Bill C-61 will make its way from Waterfront Station, heading south on Seymour Street. The body will be laid to rest in front of a tombstone at the south entrance of SFU Harbour Centre on West Hastings Street.
Canadians are reminded that although this bill is being laid to rest, the issue is far from dead: how we vote in the next election will determine what the next version of this bill is going to look like.
WHEN: Sunday, October 5, 2008 at 12:00pm
WHERE: SFU Harbour Centre, South Entrance, 515 West Hastings Street
WHO: Vancouver Chapter of Fair Copyright for Canada
WHAT: Funeral Procession: 12:00pm
Eulogies at SFU Harbour Centre Entrance: 12:05pm
