摘要：During the 1930s, Canada was the first country to regulate PROs,
thus setting the paradigm of a regulated monopoly. During the
1990s, the government advocated the view that collective
administration would be the solution for many of the anticipated
copyright challenges of the ¡®digital age.¡¯ Amendments to the
Copyright Act in 1997 widely endorsed the idea of collective
administration in almost every imaginable area of copyright. As
a result, new collectives were established,with Canada now holding
the world record in the sheer number of collectives.
