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.
That would explain why none of ex-yu countries is not on list.While piracy is here frequent amongst common people,piracy on government property and corporations is controlled a lot and almost zero piracy there.
