CANADA + ACTA (LINKS)
First off, how about a Canadian blog explains ACTA to you: HERE is a great starting page, which will help familiarize you with ACTA. It lists tons of  resources for you to further educate yourself on this issue.
Canada signed this in 2011, (here is a slightly outdated canadian resource from when we actually signed it) but if the EU does not sign then we still have hope. So we DO NOT want the EU to sign this. HERE is an easy to read timeline of ACTA, from when it was created (in the fires of hell if you ask me) to now. 
Official Canadian Government Links On ACTA
News Release
Text on the Agreement + Info
Now that you’ve looked at both the viewpoints of the people, and then the government rhetoric I bet you are asking yourself: what can I do to stop this shit?
There are things you can do to help prevent this, here are a few options: 
Tweet, Facebook, etc, about #ACTA . Spread the word. Tell your friends.
Join a facebook group about it (related to above)
Badger your MP about it. Badger any elected official you might possibly know. 
Visit stop acta for posters you can print out, as well as links to online petitions. 
Most of this is just spreading awareness! Because our lovely government signed this shit just in time to prepare us for a 2012 apocalypse. Or something. I must have been in my igloo or wrestling a polar bear at the time.
Anyway, here are some links I compiled, mostly a Canadian perspective on the matter and by no means the greatest or best collection of sources. Hopefully they are useful, and if you come across more please send them my way or reblog this and add it on. 
BECAUSE I FOR ONE WANT THIS GLORIOUS BEAVER TO ROAM FREE WITHOUT GOVERNMENT SURVEILLANCE ON HIS INTERWEBZ. Or something.
