If I have a Task Mage Assembly in play and I control a Swans of Bryn Argoll what happens if my opponents target the swan? It's my enchantment, but is the effect theirs? Do I draw the card or do they? Thank you in advanced!

They control the ability because they're the one who activated it, BUT what matters for Swans is who controls the source of damage, which isn't the same. The source is the Assembly and it's you who controls it, so it's you who draws.

I'm a former judge (lapsed), who keeps up to date on rules and policy. Keep in mind that judges' answers aren't necessarily more valid than those of people who aren't judges; what matters is we can quote the rules to back up our answers. When in doubt, ask for such quotes.
The controller of an ability is the person who put it onto the stack.
EDIT: I misread Swans. See Mad<age's response for the correct answer (I removed the incorrect portion of my answer stating the person who activated the ability drew the cards).
