ATTENTION : Activity run in ENGLISH

An Alberta Court of Appeal decision in 2017 may not have received all the copyright attention it should have despite the fact that the Supreme Court of Canada refused to grant leave to appeal it.  In it were at stake serious emerging issues such as data protection by copyright, confidential information protection, regulatory regimes, artificial intelligence, etc.  Our two expert panelists will be able to clarify the relationship between all these elements and point us towards what to watch for in their future developments irrespective of the industries that may be affected by them.
