Both Canada and the United States being common law jurisdictions, many assume that trademark law and practice is similar in the two countries. Be ready for some surprises: When it comes to protecting your brand, maintaining it, and enforcing it, brand owners and their trademark counsel should be aware of notable differences between the two legal systems. In this webinar, we will discuss these key differences and their practical impact, including regarding:
- Rights in unregistered versus registered trademarks
- The registration process
- Opposition proceedings
- Maintaining registrations
- Cancellation proceedings based on non-use
- Official marks
