The paper begins with a brief survey of the relationship of copyright to Canadian cultural policy, and the status of culture in international trade agreements generally. It then focuses on a series of agreements which deal specifically with intellectual property (IP) including the Agreement on Trade Related Aspects of Intellectual Property (TRIPs) and the two recent agreements spearheaded by the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), and considers the implications for creators of the new international regime. |
