I UNIONS, GUILDS & ASSOCIATIONS Motion picture exhibitors throughout Canada have paid annual licence fees to CAPAC for more than 50 years. The right to charge music performance fees on behalf of composers, authors and publishers of music is a right that is provided for in the Copyright Act of Canada. This right has been upheld by the courts. The current licence fees which CAPAC may lawfully sue for or collect are approved annually by the Copyright Appeal Board. This Board is appointed by the Government of Canada under the authority of the Copyright Act. The fees that are payable are set out in the Canada Gazette, a copy of which can be obtained from the Canadian Government Publishing Centre, Hull, Que, or from the CAPAC offices.
