I believe you are right. From my understanding the copyright act in Canada was changed do they could charge a small flat fee on all blank audio media and that would compensate for "private copying". So if I loan you a CD and you make a copy for yourself this is legitimate in Canada. While this law was enacted before p2p I believe that it does legitimize p2p downloading. This is why they want to increase the fees and broaden the number of media and devices which would be charged this levy
