Canadian copyright help
Ive written an orchestral suite that is finished and I have no idea how to copywrite it so I can upload it. Just wondering if anyone has copywritten a piece in Canada. I assume we are supposed to copywrite our music before uploading?

generally speaking, if you want to protect your work, then submitting it for a copyright is a good idea as simply publishing it won't afford you much (if any) protection.

thank you for the reply. Do you know if I can use a "pen name" for the author of the work, the way that literary authors can. Or if that will void the copyright because it is not me legal name? I was named after my biological father, but I'd like to use the last name of me grandfather , who was a music lover.

This section of the document linked above seems to handle this topic:
Anonymity
If you are the author of the work as well as the owner of the copyright of the work, and you wish to remain anonymous, you may use a pseudonym in place of your name. Note that you must still include a complete mailing address.
If you have any questions or need clarity on the use of a pseudonym, you should seek the services of a legal professional in the area of intellectual property.

The application asks for a document number, and a registration number among other things. What the hell are these? How does anyone make sense of this LOL? its just a maze of jargon. Perhaps I have the wrong application.
anyone know what a registration number is?
It says on the copyright order form to enter the registration number. I have no idea what that is.

Thanks.
I've always found my strength lies more in hands-on tasks than in academic writing , so crafting nursing essays can be quite challenging for me. However, examining how professionals organize and articulate their ideas in sample essays like https://www.nursingpaper.com/examples/accountable-care-organizations-fo… has been tremendously beneficial. It feels like I've been given a guide to achieving success!
