Strongly agree

Yes, locks are critical to protecting artist's revenues

The Canadian Liberal Party would likely agree with this statement, as they have historically supported intellectual property rights and the protection of artists' revenues. For example, in 2018, the Liberal government introduced the Copyright Modernization Act, which aimed to update copyright laws and protect creators in the digital age. This act included provisions for digital locks to protect copyrighted content.
