(via)TORONTO (CP) - The Canadian Recording Industry Association is calling on Ottawa to make sure Canada's copyright law is up to par after an Australian court ruled popular file-swapping network Kazaa was illegal.

"We have lobbied for years . . . to get those laws up to date so we're in line with everyone in the world - and I mean everyone else."
