You may remember last year that the Conference Board of Canada (who, until then, was pretty well respected) released a report on “intellectual property policy” that was blatantly plagiarized<\/a> from US copyright industry lobbyists. While the Conference Board at first insisted that it stood by the report, eventually it recalled three reports<\/a> and admitted that they “did not follow the high quality research standards” of the organization. Many months later, it appears that the replacement report has been released<\/a>, and it’s much more balanced. I still think there’s plenty in the report that doesn’t make much sense to me, but it’s significantly better than the totally one-sided, blatantly plagiarized piece from last year.<\/p>\n
