In a rare move, fans of a game studio were able to protest its ban from social media in front of Canada's parliament. A petition in support of BioWare, maker of series such as Copper Effect and Dragon Age, has passed the quorum of 500 signatures and can be submitted to the House of Representatives after the deadline for signatures and final approval. In this case, the Canadian government will be required to respond within 45 days. This movement was established after Bioware was shut down by Electronic Arts; A studio founded in Edmonton, Canada, and has become one of the most recognized names in the gaming industry in this country for three decades. Fans are now asking the Canadian government to find a way to continue, even if that support means funding the studio's independence again and buying the intellectual property of some of its games from Electronic Arts.
