Here is the video of the Committee Hearing: (They saw me, I saw squiggly bits). In it you will note some guy — apparently Dean Del Maestro — yelling at me while I am silently opening and closing my mouth like a fish because he turned the mic off.

One of the things he yelled was that no one had ever suggested that educators would pay less to authors and that it was outrageous for me to say so. But the government said so its very own self:

In a government fact sheet on Bill C-32, entitled What the New Copyright Modernization Act Means for Teachers, the Government emphasizes that fair dealing for the purpose of education will be an "important" change to the Copyright Act and that "Extending this provision to education will reduce the administrative and financial costs for users of copyrighted materials that enrich the educational environment."

"Administrative costs" means tracking the use of copied material, I can only suppose. "Financial costs" means paying for it. If the government doesn't mean that, what in stars DOES it mean?
