Canadian, U.S., and international politics; and life in general. Heck, whatever strikes my fancy...

The mouse patent was necessary for Canadian cancer research to go ahead. Harvard wouldn't have allowed any Canadian researchers to use the mouse without a Canadian patent to protect themselves. While I'm not usually a fan of patenting GMOs (Monsanto comes to mind), I think in this case, it's probably justified. Unfortunately, it opens the door for others to patent their creations as well....
