Nov 19, 2021
From 12 PM to 1 PM

Location Activity online with ZOOM (link will be sent the day before the event between 2:00 PM and 4:00 PM)

Less than three months after its hearing, the Supreme Court of Canada rendered its decision in the case that opposed Access Copyright to York University. Even if two copyright issues were at stake, what has become known as the « compulsory character of the Copyright Board decisions » when it approves tariffs according to the “general regime” of the Copyright Act is the main issue on which the Court unanimously expressed detailed reasons. Our two panelists will exchange their views on the decision based on their respective fields of specialization, administrative law and copyright law.
