You know, given that Canadian law *is* different from US law, and I am
certainly not an expert on the law of our friends to the north, *maybe* all
the assertions about copyright are correct.
But I don't think so. 
You'd THINK they would talk to a copyright attorney about this, wouldn't
you?
 
Nah. That would be practical reportage.

Stranger than fiction
  When fans write stories based on their favourite movies or TV shows, it's
out of love. Did they ever hear of copyright?
