That would help. But the most helpful would be an endorsement by prominent Canadian authors such as Pierre Button, Margaret Atwood,
What's the point of this again? I seem to have missed the email that sparked this. If it's to get them to endorse something with a view towards protecting the public domain, and resisting the extension of copyright, forget it: Pierre Berton and Margaret Atwood are typical members of the CanLit gliterati: they don't mind pilfering the public domain, but God forbid their works should ever enter into it. Atwood is very clearly in favour of term extension; Pierre Berton seems to be tacitly so for reasons I don't wish to disclose in public.
