NOTICE OF MOTION
(Plaintiff's motion to amend)
2
TAKE NOTICE THAT the Plaintiff, 1395804 Ontario Ltd., operating as Blacklock's
Reporter, ("Blacklock's") will make motion to the Court on a date to be set by the Case
Management Prothonotary, Ms. Milczynski, at 90 Sparks St, Ottawa, Ontario, K1A OH9.
THE MOTION IS FOR:

1. An Order pursuant to Rules 75-79 and 201 of the Federal Courts Rules (Rules),
permitting Blacklock's to amend its Statements of Claim, as set out in the form attached
to this Motion Record, as follows:
Schedule Federal Court File No. Defendant

3. An Order pursuant to Rule 235 of the Rules providing leave to Blacklock's to examine for
discovery each of the following Defendants:

Agency
4. Costs of this Motion; and
5. Such further and other relief as to this Honourable Court may seem just.
THE GROUNDS FOR THE MOTION ARE:

Background:
6. On December 6, 2017, the Attorney General of Canada ("AG") provided Blacklock's with
a summary of the parties' November 23, 2017 case conference which indicates that "no
party is to file any motion until there has been a CMC to discuss the issue/proposed
motion". A Direction was issued by the Court, accordingly.
7. On January 10, 2018, Blacklock's retained new counsel, MBM Intellectual Property Law.
8. On February 6, 2018, MBM participated in its first case conference wherein it advised
the Court that three matters had been settled. The Court was advised that the parties
were seeking ways to advance the litigation.
9. On February 6, 2018, the parties discussed whether legal questions could be

determined in advance of any trial including issues relating to confirmatory assignments
and technological protection measures. The parties met on March 13, 2018, but
unfortunately, consent to pursue a reference was declined.
10. On June 4, 2018, MBM participated in its second case conference in these matters.
MBM proposed, on behalf of Blacklock's that it provide draft amended Statements of
Page 3 of 8
4
Claim and seek consent accordingly for their filing. The draft claims were circulated on
July 4, 2018.
11. On July 25, 2018, MBM participated in its third case conference in these matters wherein
the Defendants confirmed they would not consent to the filing of the draft amended
claims.
Naming Correct Party:
12. The Plaintiff in each of the below actions mistakenly named a Government Department
and should have named the Attorney General of Canada. These propose amendments
do not cause any doubt as to the identity of the proper Defendant:
B T-943-17 National Energy Board
T-134-17 FINTRAC
Copvright Ownership:
13. Each of the Statements of Claim assert that Blacklock's owns copyright of the infringed
works. The proposed amended Statements of Claim seek to particularize the ownership
by Blacklock's of the copyright in issue -either by Mr. Tom Korski, author, being an
employee, officer and/or director of Blacklock's, each of the authors assigning copyright
to Blacklock's, or alternatively, as a result of Mr. Korski's contribution of originality and
expression to the asserted works. The Plaintiff is not seeking to alter the capacity in
which Blacklock's is bringing the proceedings.
Technoloaical Protection Measures (TPMI —Limitation Periods:
14. Blacklock's seeks to add a new cause of action to assert circumvention of the
Blacklock's technological protection measures contrary to s.41.1(1)(a) of the Copyright
Act. The new cause of action arises out of substantially the same facts as already
pleaded by Blacklock's in the actions. As such, technological protection measures may
be pursued notwithstanding that the amendment for certain of the actions occurred
Page 4 of 8
5
outside the limitation period.
Improper to Suppress Evidence:
15. Each of the proposed amended Statements of Claim where the Department of Justice is
counsel includes the following amendment under the heading of punitive damages: "The
Defendants agent improperly notified Alex Binkley, Kaven Baker-Voakes, Dale Smith,
Mark Bourrie and Justin Ling that they could withdraw evidence regarding Blacklock's
ownership of articles which they authored".
16. In making the said amendment, Blacklock's is relying on advice given by the counsel for
the Attorney General of Canada that the said authors were free to withdraw their
affidavits to avoid cross-examination.
Conversion from Simplified Actions to Ordinary Actions:
17. If the Court finds circumvention of Blacklock's TPM, the award of damages in each of
the current simplified actions could far exceed $50,000 in damages. As such, the
simplified actions ought to be converted to ordinary actions.
Additional Discove
18. If the proposed amendments are granted, common sense would dictate that Blacklock's
be permitted additional discovery in the three actions (T-269-15/CIDA; T-1085-
15/Competition Bureau; T-897-15/CTA) where written discovery has occurred.
Interest of Justice:
19. It is in the interest of justice to allow the proposed amended Statements of Claim.
20. It is not plain and obvious that the proposed amended Statements of Claim will fail at
trial.
21. Trial has not been set for any of the matters in issue. Moreover, the proposed
Page 5 of 8
amendments will determine the real questions in controversy between the parties.
22. The Defendants will not suffer any prejudice.
23. The Defendants have unnecessarily opposed the proposed amended Statements of
Claim. The Defendants have failed to consent to any part of the proposed amended
Statements of Claim.
24. Pursuant to Rule 77 of the Federal Courts Rules, and s. 43.1 of the Copyright Act RSC
1985, c C-42, the relevant period of limitation had not expired at the date of
commencement of the proceedings.
25. Sections 13(3), 41(a), 38.1(1), 41.1, 43.1 of the Copyright Act, RSC 1985, c. C-42, as
amended.
26. Rules 3, 47, 75, 76, 77, 201, 235, 292 of the Federal Courts Rules, SOR 98/106.
27. Such further and other grounds as counsel for the Plaintiff may advise.
THE FOLLOWING DOCUMENTARY EVIDENCE will be used at the hearing of the motion:
A. The pleadings and proceedings herein including Schedules A-L;
B. Affidavit of Tom Korski sworn August 23, 2018;
C. Such further and other materials as counsel may advise and this Honourable Court
may permit.

the above articles were and continue to be Locked Articles. The Plaintiff
pleads that if there are other Circulated Articles not referenced above such
knowledge is in the purview of the Defendant and will be the subject of discovery.
15H. The Plaintiff pleads that the Defendants wrongful activities described in this
action occurred for commercial purposes for media operation and monitoring by
the Defendant.
151. On or about March 27, 2017, the Plaintiff became aware of the Defendant's
wrongful sharing of Login Information following a review of the second des Rosier
DTI rota irri

wronaful production. reproduction and distribution of the Circulated Articl
following a review of the first Drummond ATI return.
16. The ATI Returns demonstrate that various email groups which received the
Circulated Articles consisted of a total of approximately 1,192 email accounts,
including email accounts corresponding to government employees in
departments and agencies other than Health Canada.
24
34
~ .
.~
20. On August 22, 2014, the Plaintiff sent an email to the Defendant indicating that it
had identified approximately 121 stories that were distributed to approximately
2000 names. Accordingly, the Plaintiff requested that Health Canada confirm
whether its content was in fact distributed to 2000 users and also requested the
identity of a gmail user whose name was redacted from the ATI request.
21. On September 4, 2014, Montreuil indicated that no more than 500 people
received the Articles directly from Health Canada. He also revealed the name of
the gmail account holder.
22. On September 27, 2014, after the Plaintiff undertook its own calculations, the
Plaintiff sent Health Canada an invoice in the amount of $90,100.55. This amount
represents the cost of an institutional license to a department the size of Health
Canada, and institutional license charges for the multiple instances of third-party
distribution to people within the Privy Council Office, Citizenship and Immigration
Canada, the Department of Agriculture, and the Canadian Food Inspection
Agency.
Damages for Breach of Copyright Act
22A. The Defendant's production, reproduction, and distribution of the Circulated
25
35
Articles was explicitly prohibited by the Plaintiff. In doing so, the Defendant
infringed the Plaintiff's copyright in the Circulated Articles.

circumvention of the Blacklock's TPM in that the sharing of the password sharing
of the Locked Articles and/orr requesting a Locked Article removes impairs,
avoids and/or bypasses the Blacklock's TPM. By circumventing the Blacklock's
TPM the Defendant had access to the entire library of Locked Works of the
Plaintiff until the expiry of the password on or about January 28, 2017.
22C. The Defendant was aware or should have been aware that its action
contravened s.27(1) and s.41.1(1)(a) of the Act.
26
36

routinely purchased and does purchase electronic subscriptions from a number
of different news media content providers and spent between $12,000 and
$97,000 in annual subscriptions from individual media content providers.

have known that it was circumventing Blacklock's TPM ab r disclosing login
information to employees within Health Canada without authorization and
without adverting to the Terms and CEonditions of the Plaintiff;
b) The Defendant routinely purchased and had, at the material times referred
to herein, subscribed to news media content paying between $12,000 and
$97,000 per year for such subscription to each content provider and was
accordingly aware of the cost of purchasing institutional licenses for such
content;
c) The Defendant did not advise its employees of Blacklock's copyright

restrictions demonstrating disregard for its legal obligations and the value
of the Plaintiff's economic interests;
~,
38
d) The Defendant acted in bad faith by disseminating and circulating

information within Health Canada and to government employees outside
of Health Canada with the explicit knowledge that the Plaintiff's content is
available by subscription only;
e) After receiving the Plaintiff's article through an individual subscription, the

Defendant did not have an incentive to purchase an institutional user
license from the Plaintiff, the outcome of which was a foreseeable and
adverse consequence to the Plaintiff's economic interests;
fl Circumvention of subscription based lawful access of online news content

erodes the basis of the Plaintiff's business and its ability to charge a fee
for its services;
g) The Defendant's dealings with the Plaintiff demonstrate an unethical

business practice, the gravity of which may be aggravated should further
unauthorized disclosure of Blacklock's content be discovered;
h) The Defendants dealings with the Plaintiff run counter to its commitment
to personal integrity and working with others in a manner that fosters the
trust of Canadians.
i) The Defendant has a public duty to lawfully use the media resources it has
obtained;
j) The unlawful sharing of copyright protected content for use by a publicly

funded agency adversely affects public confidence in the practices of the
Defendant;
k) The Defendant is or should have been aware that institutional

subscriptions are different than personal use subscriptions and that
29
39
government agencies are not individual or personal users;
I) Ms. Drummond, on behalf of the Defendant, purchased and maintained an

individual electronic subscription while the Media Monitoring Group
engaged in distribution of Blacklock's content on behalf of the Defendant
institution, which they knew or ought to have known was impermissible
under the Plaintiff's terms of use of its copyright protected material; and
m) The Defendant's agent imgroperly notified Alex Binkley, Kaven Baker-

Voakes, Dale Smith, Mark Bourrie and Justin Linq that they could
withdraw evidence regarding Blacklock's ownership of articles which then
authored.
36. The Plaintiff reserves its right to amend its pleading based upon discovery of
other instances of unauthorized disclosure of its copyright protected content by
the Defendant.
37. The Plaintiff pleads and relies upon the Copyright Act, R.S.C., 1985, c. C-42.
