I'm interested here also. The recent talk of copyright reform 
legislation is probably the hottest Canadian topic at the moment, imho, 
considering some are calling it the Canadian DMCA. Any 
anti-circumvention measures could make it illegal to watch a DVD in 
GNU/Linux, for example. Not sure what other Canadian issues would be 
particularly relevant though, I'm interested in learning more too.
