So the site is finally up and running. What is the Pirate Party of Canada? It is an organization aimed at copyright and patent law reform. Let’s get one thing clear right away: we do not condone breaking criminal laws, nor do we condone breaking civil laws. The name of this organization was inspired by the Swedish Pirate Party, and I suspect they took the name because it’s a lot easier to remember then something like “The [country name] party for copyright and patent reform” which is a bit of a mouthful, and does not lend itself well to an acronym (CPCPR?). Currently this site exists to help interested people find each other and getting things started.
