Somewhat less than half of all software in Canada is stolen: about 41%. This is nearly twice the U.S. rate, and higher than the rate for Western Europe (36%), but it is lower than the rates for Eastern Europe (70%), the Middle East (63%), Asia (47%), and Latin America (59%). > A few years ago Peter Dvorak (PC magazine) stated > in an article that Canadians were among the world's > worst software pirates. They are worse than Western Europeans and Americans, but compare favorably to most of the rest of the world.
