On failed consultations

ShamWow Minister Tony Clement tries to reassure one of his Twitter questioners that he'll look into the question of whether his government's copyright legislation effectively outlaws open-source software:

Relax-looking into it RT @abramh @TonyClement_MP refuses to acknowledge that #C32 bans Linux/Android/OpenSource/FreeSoftware

And of course it's completely to be expected that Clement would have absolutely no clue what impact C-32 might have on open-source content. After all, it's not as if the bill was drafted following a consultation process where that exact question was front and centre.
