The act is located here http://www.cb-cda.gc.ca/info/act-e.html
Pay close attention to the use of the term 'collective society' and
definitions of assignment of rights to collective societies.

In case any question arises, software is considered a "literary work"
under the act.  Be prepared to have the hair on the back of your neck
stand up more than once as you read the act.
