By Michael Geist

While the Conservative decision to include the re-introduction of C-61 in its platform makes it unlikely that many (or any) of its candidates will support the copyright pledge, interest from Liberal and New Democrat candidates continues to grow (the Green party already committed as a party).  In addition to the previously announced commitments (here and here), the following additional candidates have indicated their support:

• Glen Pearson, Liberal MP, London North Centre, ON
• Joyce Murray, Liberal MP, Vancouver Quadra, BC
• Dana L. Miller, Liberal candidate, Delta-Richmond East, BC
• Richard Pesik, Liberal candidate, Nanaimo-Alberni, BC
• Patricia Zipchen, Liberal candidate, Saskatoon-Wanuskewin, SK
• Tim Jones, Liberal candidate, Newmarket-Aurora, ON
• Denis Sabourin, Liberal candidate, Stormont-Dundas-South Glengarry, ON

• Judy Wasylycia-Leis, New Democrat MP, Winnipeg North, MB
• Catherine Bell, New Democrat MP, Vancouver North, BC
• Pat Martin, New Democrat MP, Winnipeg Centre, MB
