Canada Placed On US Piracy Watch List
April 30th, 2009
The US Trade Representative (USTR) has for the first time placed Canada on its “priority watch list” for failure to enforce effective intellectual property protection.
The decision, which was applauded by the Entertainment Software Association (ESA), places Canada on a list of countries deemed to have the worst record of preventing piracy and the counterfeiting of US goods, which also includes China, Russia, Algeria and Indonesia.
