Quebecor welcomes Canadian federal court ruling easing expansion of piracy site-blocking orders
  • Quebecor welcomed a Federal Court of Canada ruling that streamlines enforcement of existing website-blocking orders against piracy services.
  • The court endorsed an “omnibus” mechanism to extend blocks to successor domains or rebranded services without launching a full new case each time.
  • Quebecor framed the decision as strengthening court-supervised tools to curb fast-moving online piracy that can reappear within hours.
  • The company cited prior wins in related disputes, including a 2019 GoldTV blocking order and a 2023 permanent injunction in Konek/Hill Valley.
