This is one of many reasons that the majority of Canadians fear a Conservative majority. Stephen Harper would likely push through a Canadian equivalent of the DCMA.
However it is a component of the general feeling that the conservatives are essentially Republicans-lite, basically using the Republican's "southern strategy" of media manipulation and fear, anti-crime propaganda, subtle racism and fear of the "other" to pander to a particular class of voters.
In my opinion (Canadian currently in the US).
