Copyright Lobbying: September Update

By Michael Geist

Last month, I posted on the data from the new lobbyist registry that includes reports on meetings with senior government officials.  The first batch of entries included meetings on intellectual property with CRIA, Microsoft, CTVGlobemedia, and Google.  The newest update, which covers the month of August, includes the following new meetings:

• Canadian Private Copying Collective (August 13th with policy advisor Zoe Addington)
• Canadian Association of Broadcasters (August 28th with Addington and Chief of Staff Stephen Kelly)
• Canadian Photographers Coalition (August 13th with Addington, Jean-Sebastien Langelier, senior policy advisor at Canadian Heritage, and Sabrina Anzini, policy advisor at the PMO)

Prentice's meetings for the month included the Canadian Council of Chief Executives, CTVGlobeMedia, Honda, GM, Encana, Imperial Oil, and Maple Leaf Foods.
