31. Why does this matter to Canada?
Canada lags other countries in
productivity
Lower investment in ICT is the primary
reason Canada is falling behind
Digital Media is the core of ICT NOW
and in the future
32. Why does this matter to Canada?
What will happen if Canada
continues to fall behind?
We will soon reach a point where
we can no longer catch up
We must become a digital nation to
keep up to other countries
33. What is a Digital Nation?
Every citizen is connected
All content used in society is
available
An ownership model is fair and
transparent
Common activities in society are
just as easy in digital
34. Ask Yourself
How is Canada positioned in
the new digital economy?
How do we keep up?
How can Canadians take
advantage of the opportunities
discussed here today?
What can we describe as a
goal that will capture the
imagination of all Canadians?

& Rights Management
Beware the Under Toad
Gary Maavara and Jerry Brown
Corus Entertainment
June 8, 2009
79. And Garp and Helen and Duncan held their
breath; they realized that all these years,
Walt had been dreading a giant toad, lurking
offshore, waiting to suck him under and drag
him out to sea. The terrible Under Toad.
Garp tried to imagine it with him. Would it
ever surface? Did it ever float? Or was it
always down under, slimy and bloated and
ever watchful for ankles its coated tongue
could snare? The vile Under Toad.”
80. Introduction
The changes in broadcasting and distribution.
It’s the bits.
The impact on rights and rights management.
Availability: Getting rights to market.
Enterprise Digital Rights Management
The real terms of trade issue – taxonomy.
Why we regulate?
The impact on our economy.
87. And networks of databases of bits.
Digital media are just intersecting databases of bits residing
and delivered through various application technologies.
Newspapers
Web Sites
Magazine INTERNET
Radio
Television
88. Bits (digital media) are easily copied.
Copyright was a social contract that gave creators
protection for a fixed time if they published the work.
Now replication and publication are simple.
And every copy is as good as the first.
89. Plasticity of Digital Media
The ease with which you can correct your work is also a
liability to owners of works.
The term “derivative work” has become more important.
91. Compactness of Works in Digital Media
Digital works don’t occupy much space and space is
cheap.
You can store big databases in ways unimaginable in the
past.
You can keep everything.
92. Equivalence of Works in Digital Media
Works are protected and
regulated by the nature of the
work:
Books, photographs, musical
works.
But what if they are all just
digital bits – databases with
software that guides how they
are consumed?
How do adapt the law?
93. Ease of Transmission and Multiple Use
Ease of transmission
means the end of scarcity.
It means the end of
distance.
What is a territory?
What is cultural protection?
94. So what does that mean on
a day to day basis for
companies like Corus?
95. Books: Kids Can Press
One Hen
A book coupled with an on line
social network.
http://onehen.opportunity.org/
98. So what are implications for the
old rules of rights management?
99. Availability
So we have all of these media, how do we make them available to
consumers? When they want, how they want, on the platform they are
using?
Distributing seamlessly
Enabling common standards
Versioning/purposing to support all the devices we use
Tracking
– Who watches what when
Valuing
For the Consumer
What does the content
mean to me? Is it in context?
That drives consumption
100. Why do we regulate?
To manage Human or Societal behavior
We need to ensure a place on the Canadian shelf for Canadian
stories. That is key to our sense of being Canadian
There must a framework
within which content
creators and distributors
can build viable,
vibrant companies
We have international
obligations
101. EDRM
If we have rights, how do we manage them?
Rights management is based on keeping accurate records and
acting on them
Today – spreadsheets and “experience” plus lots of paper
Tomorrow – databases and electronic data exchange
This is a huge process change:
Standards of records
Definable contract terms
People to accurately manage inputs and outputs.
102. Taxonomy and Terminology
Tax what?
Dictionary Definition - Taxonomy:
The science or technique of
classification
Practical Realities:
Words need a common definition e.g.
territory
The same words need to be used with
the same meaning by everyone
The understanding/intention must be
translatable into a contract and across
language and cultures
104. Why do we regulate?
To manage Human or Societal behaviour?
Do we still need to ensure a place on the Canadian
shelf for Canadian stories? Is this key to our sense of
being Canadian
If there must a framework within which content
creators and distributors can build viable, vibrant
companies, what is it?
We have international obligations. Do they matter?
107. Content creation
How do we develop the rules to sustain/promote a viable
and credible content creation industry for Canada?
New rules and board for Canada Media Fund.
CRTC examination of its rules and the CRTC New Media
policy.
Provincial Initiatives
108. What does this mean for the economy?
The creative industries are job engines
In 2007/08 The film and television production sector
alone employed more than 131,800 people directly and
indirectly across Canada – 41,600 in Ontario
Relatively small additional investments produce dramatic
increase in those numbers.
Canadians are creative across all media fields – we
punch above our weight.
109. Summary
What is our digital Under Toad?
We must assess the basics
starting with the bits.
We need to realize that some of
the most important aspects of the
challenge might not be getting the
attention they deserve.
