1 . The a t i o n a l Post Company the "National P ost" ) opposes the motion f o r leave

Association (the " C C I A" ) . The C C I A has no a c t u a l d i r e c t i n t e r e s t i n t h i s proceeding.

Rather, i t s s t a t e d purpose i n seeking t o i n t e r v e n e i s t o address what i t describes as

" d i s t u r b i n g worldwide trends" and t o ensure t h a t "Canada's c o p y r i g h t law remains

PART I I - SUBMISSIONS

14. There are t h r e e important reasons why the CCIA's m o t i o n f o r i n t e r v e n t i o n ought

t o be denied.

15. F i r s t , the C C I A ha s n o d i r e c t i n t e r e s t i n t h i s proceeding. I n s t e a d , i t s i n t e r e s t i s

p u r e l y j u r i s p r u d e n t i a l a n d s e l f -i n t e r e s t e d . The C C I A wishes t o i n f l u e n c e the r e s u l t o f t h i s

proceeding i n a n e f f o r t t o i n f l u e n c e the development o f l e g a l precedent i n C a n a d a i n a

m a n n e r t h a t might be favourable t o the c ommercial i n t e r e s t s o f i t s m e m b e r s a n d t h a t

might support t s m e mbers' o s i t i o n i n p o t e n t i a l f u t u r e l i t i g a t i o n .

16. Se c o n d , the CCIA's proposed i n t e r v e n t i o n would g r e a t l y ex pa n d the s c o p e o f the

issues i n t h i s proceeding. The CCIA seeks t o e n g a g e i n a n extensive d i s c u s s i o n of

i n t e r n a t i o n a l law a n d i n t e r n a t i o n a l t r e a t y o b l i g a t i o n s , which are a t best m a r g i n a l l y

r e l e v a n t t o the Appeals. I n a n y event, a n y examination o f i n t e r n a t i o n a l t r e a t y o b l i g a t i o n s

would d r a m a t i c a l l y inc rease the magnitude, s c o p e a n d complexity o f t h i s proceeding,

a n d i s n ot necessary t o r e s o l v e the Appeals o n t h e i r m e r i t s .

17. T h i r d , the CCIA's p a r t i c i p a t i o n i s redundant a n d d u p l i c a t i v e . CIPPIC has already

put f orward a m o t i o n f o r leave t o i n t e r v e n e a n d, l i k e the CCIA, i s g e n e r a l l y — i f not

e n t i r e l y — supportive o f the Respondents' p o s i t i o n . Other than the i n t e r n a t i o n a l law

issues, which are i r r e l e v a n t t o the Appeals, the issues t h a t the C C I A seeks t o address

have a l l been r a i s e d by CIPPIC . F u r t h e r , t o the extent t h a t a n y issues o f p u b l i c i n t e r e s t

or p o l i c y a r i s e i n t h i s case, which i s denied, CIPPIC i s m o r e a p p r o p r i a t e l y placed than

the CCIA o o p i ne o n them.

(C) CONCLUSION

50. Th e CCIA should n o t be g r a n t e d l e a v e t o i n t e r v e n e i n the Appeals. I t has no

d i r e c t i n t e r e s t i n the s u b j e c t m a t t e r o f the Appeals. R a t h e r , t has a mere u r i s p r u d e n t i a l

emptively i t i g a t e issues t h a t i t s membe rs have faced i n o t h e r j u r i s d i c t i o n s .

51. F u r t h e r , the CCIA's i n t e n d e d p a r t i c i p a t i o n seeks o unduly expand the magnitude

and complexity of t h i s proceeding by f o c u s i n g on i n t e r n a t i o n a l law and r e q u i r i n g the

p a r t i e s t o respond on those i s s u e s . Addressing i n t e r n a t i o n a l law issues i s unnecessary

i n t h i s case, and the CCIA ought o be denied the b i l i t y t o r a i s e t h i s i s s u e .

52. F i n a l l y , the CCIA's p a r t i c i p a t i o n i s simply n o t necessary g i v e n t h a t CIPPIC has

already sought i n t e r v e n e r s t a t u s , i n t e n d s t o address t h e same i s s u e s t h a t the CCIA

seeks t o address, supports the Respondents, and i s b e t t e r p o s i t i o n e d t o r e p r e s e n t the
