Canada had a bad reputation for piracy long before the Internet. You go into a Canadian business' offices and you're very likely to find cracked software running the business. Same goes for DVD's and video games.

Canada's copyright laws are a joke, I honestly thought about saying 'wtf' and doing a file sharing site because the law in Canada is so weak. BUT as I continued investigating the subject I found out that if sued in a US court and damages are awarded against you it is becoming much easier for Americans to get Canadian courts to enforce an American judgement.
