Canada's Anti-Spam Legislation Analysis

Materialism is a grievous ailment that many Americans suffer from as a result of America’s grand consumer culture. While materialism is indeed associated with negative connotations, commodities have different cultural influences on certain social groups. For example, a commodity well known to the Asian-American community is Spam. In the 2011 article, “The End of Spam Shame: On Class, Colonialism, and Canned Meat”, Sylvie Kim reminisces over the shame she had for her love of Spam. She draws in connections between Spam and American imperialism to demonstrate to her fellow Asian Americans that they should not be ashamed of their love for Spam as it represents their identity. While a history professor of Wisconson-Madison,

In 1999, Andrew Leonard wrote the article on “We’ve Got Mail. Always”.

In Canada, freedom of speech is generally protected under Section 2 of Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. The Criminal Code of Canada, however, limits these freedoms and provides for several forms of punishable hate speech.

The CRTC (2013c) identified five categories that this policy addressed: the necessity of offering all marketable news services, news neighbourhoods, packaging requirements, filing affiliation agreements and resolution strategies in negotiation rates and set an implementation period. The Commission ruled in favour of offering all news services to Canadian cable subscribers, against requiring that broadcasting distribution undertakings (BDUs) categorize similar programming into news neighbourhoods, against requiring packaged or bundled services and has permitted continued commercial negotiations instead of CRTC mediated negotiations. By March 19, 2014, all BDUs are required to satisfy the must-offer provision of this policy; all other arrangements will be effective

We believe that our judicial system does not support the rights guaranteed in Canadian charter rights and freedom and focus on legal guilt over factual guilt. The Canadian court system sentencing procedure see’ over both sides of the story carefully but court focus on proving suspect guilt rather then innocence. Our judicial systems currently have many flaws and it’s clearly noticeable in some situations. There have been a lot of cases where our judicial system failed to provide justice to the victim or guaranteed rights to society. Our main law that has been compromised in years is the privacy law. Fifteen years ago privacy was not as important as it today, the main reason for that is technology. As science advance it came up with all these new gadgets such as cell, computer and tables and with all technology came the rise social media. We now have Facebook, Twitter, Istagram, and many more online social media sites that people uses. Our law says that all of our private information cannot be disclosed to government unless someone is a threat but these rights have been violated multiple times. The first time it was an issue was in G20 summit, June 2010. Lately is have also been an issue in Canadian spy companies. Also government recently passed the bill c-150, which clearly violates our charter rights.

Bill C-51 defines the security of Canada as needing an information sharing act. This act interferes with many aspects of the public as it expands the definition of security allowing the government to exploit an individual of their

Rules revolving around Canadian Content (CanCon) have been set in place since the 1920’s. In 2005, revisions to the 1991 Broadcasting Act were made. Since this revision was made there have been further changes to the Act trying to create the best set of rules for CanCon to be broadcasted (Dewing, 2011). CanCon is an outdated concept that is causing consumers to switch to other forms of media. The CanCon rules cannot determine what is considered Canadian and they cannot keep up with the ever-changing forms of media. Canadian producers are only getting a slim portion of the industry even with the rules in place. Therefore CanCon rules should be totally eliminated.

In docket number 14-28, FCC 15-24, the Federal Communication Commission released a document concerning the protection and promotion of open internet. The internet is essential for speech, our economy, business and innovation, making this a very important issue to examine. In a globalized world, the internet keeps us in contact and update with persons and events all around the world. This document deals with the Open Internet Order, which, “prohibits blocking, throttling, and paid prioritization” of the internet (FCC 3). These objectives are aimed at keeping the internet open for users, and providing a functioning medium for business and communication alike. After the Federal Communication Commission adopted these goals of maintaining

According to Section 69A blocking of internet site can take place only by a clear and reasoned order after following with several procedural rules and safeguards which also includes a hearing to the originator and intermediary. There are two ways in which a blocking order for a website can be passed - first by the Designated Officer after complying with the 2009 Rules and second by the Designated Officer when he has to act on an order passed by a competent court. The intermediary using its own prudence to whether information must or must not be blocked is notably absent in Section 69A read with 2009 Rules.

The first point of discussion is about the court’s role. Since the Charter, countless discussions about the court’s responsibilities have occurred. Regardless of whether it is benefitting Canada or not, it is undeniable that Canada has experienced the “judicializing” of its government . The effect of having the some of the power of Parliament shifted into the hands of the Judiciary. Previously, the judicial branch’s duty is to deal punishments to those who break the law. It was up to
