The easiest thing was to encourage people to write their MPs about it.
http://www.digital-copyright.ca/edid/letter5 Having spoken with a few MPs about petitions, it isn't getting the
government response that has the power but having an MP willing to give
a good speech when the signatures are tabled. We need to somehow find
an MP that cares about this type of issue. Letter writing is a good start.
We also have allies inside of government looking at crown copyright,
open licensing, and other such things. We just need to try to get all
the like-minded people to know about each other and to work together.
