in Canadian copyright bill: Good and bad on Mathew's comments
One example would be cellphones. I've paid for my cellphone through my contract. I want to unlock it and take it to Europe.

As far as I know my carrier isn't forced to give me the unlock code. So, I break it myself - but thats a $20,000 fine?

If you dumped the anti circumventing DRM provisions this wouldn't be too bad of a first attempt. Canadians still need to be consulted to reach the proper balance of course (the lack of transparency was disgusting) but it would be a start.
