Russell,
There are some questions which I can answer and some I cannot.
Re the national questionaire, this must, as per party policy, be addressed by national NDP.
Regarding the quesion relating to contributions for copyright and conflicts of interest, I oppose, with my party, the sitting on legislative committees addressing copyright, acting as Minister of Canadian Heritage or as Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Canadian Heritage after receiving contributions from copyright lobbyists.
Re who should handle copyright Industry or Heritage, I would have to consult my party and constituency.
