  • I have the authority to grant the rights granted herein
  • I have not infringed any third party rights, including third party intellectual property rights in creating and submitting this Work
  • I have sought the written consent of any individual appearing in my/our Work or if any such individual is under the age of majority that I have obtained the written consent of their parent or guardian, and agree to provide a copy of such consent upon Justice Canada’s request

I hereby confirm that I am in agreement with the choice of Team Captain, as identified below:

I hereby grant His Majesty the King in right of Canada as represented by the Minister of Justice (Justice Canada) a non-exclusive, royalty-free right to use, reproduce, stream, broadcast, edit, translate, adapt, or otherwise disseminate my/our Work, without any further approval from me, in whole or in part, throughout the world, in perpetuity, in any and all media now known or hereafter developed, including the Internet for purposes related to the Victims Week initiative and for related departmental non-commercial purposes.

I understand that my participation in the Student Video Competition Award is voluntary and there will be no royalty fees paid to me by Justice Canada for the rights to use my/our Work in the manner described herein. The refusal to participate will in no way negatively impact any future dealings I may have with Justice Canada.
