Another link stolen from LL: CCH Canadian Ltd. v. Law Society of Upper Canada

.... Held: The appeal should be allowed and the cross-appeal dismissed.

Moreover, the Law Society does not authorize copyright infringement by maintaining a photocopier in the Great Library and posting a notice warning that it will not be responsible for any copies made in infringement of copyright.....
