Lawrence from Northworthy and Michael Geist write about a newly formed coalition, the Business Coalition for Balanced Copyright.

It seems like everyone is forming a copyright-centric coalition these days: the Canadian Music Creators Coalition, the Creators’ Copyright Coalition, the Canadian Coalition for Electronic Rights, and now the Business Coalition for Balanced Copyright (which, despite having members such as Google, Yahoo! Canada, Rogers, Telus and Tucows, does not seem to have a website yet).

What’s next? The Canadian Coalition of Copyright Coalitions?

Now that we’re done (maybe) creating coalitions, can we get together and actually resolve some of these issues?
