Join Your CAA Advocacy Committee Today!
In Canada, with the new election of Prime Minister Mark Carney, your Advocacy Committee stands strong in its resolution to advocate for Canadian Authors Association members. The committee continues to actively represent CAA creators on national committees such as Access Copyright Nominating Committee, Book and Periodical Council, and Copyright Working Group Coalition.
Keeping abreast of monumental issues facing creators such as amending the Copyright Act to ensure fair dealing and advocating for the development of an artificial intelligence (AI) regulatory framework are two of our commitments to CAA members.
We encourage you to add your voice to our committee as we enter a new stage in advocacy with the new Canadian government and ministers. It is a pivotal time for creators in Canada as cultural sovereignty takes centre stage, and we hope you will join us.
Apply now through THIS FORM.
