Canadian Heritage Minister smears DMCA opponents as "radical extremists"

Michael Geist sez,

Canadian Heritage Minister James Moore today warned against those opposed to his Canadian DMCA, calling them “radical extremists.” When Moore claims that critics of his bill are radical extremists, who is he speaking of? Who has criticized parts of the bill or called for reforms? A short list of those critical of the digital lock provisions in C-32 would include:

* Liberal MPs
* NDP MPs
* Bloc MPs
* Green Party
* Canadian Consumer Initiative
* Association of Universities and Colleges of Canada
* Canadian Association of University Teachers
* Canadian Federation of Students
* Canadian Library Association
* Business Coalition for Balanced Copyright
* Retail Council of Canada
* Canadian Bookseller Association
* Documentary Organization of Canada
