As for Copyright Laws, U.S. Copyright Laws are NOT enforceable in many countries. For whatever ignorant reason, many people ASSUME that laws of the U.S. are laws everywhere.
See this to answer your above statements:

And since MOST countries are part of the WTO and must follow the rules by treaty, these countries all had to pass copyright laws very similar to US copyright laws to be a member and meet treaty obligations. See this WTO document on Intellectual Property Rights to see what is involved and what governments have agreed to: »www.wto.org/english/tratop_e/tri···m2_e.htm

Canada is quite clearly a member of the WTO, and our laws are considerably different than what the United States has. In addition, any potential changes to the law either get shelved by parliament, or defeated.
