Canadian Practice Committee
The Canadian Practice Committee seeks to promote a reliable and effective Canadian intellectual
property regime through advocacy and education. The Committee identifies, monitors and studies
Canadian IP issues, including legislation, judicial decisions, and Canadian Intellectual Property Office
(CIPO) activities and recommends an IPO position. The Committee will also study and report on issues
relating to Canadian antitrust and competition laws impacting intellectual property owners and seek to
educate IPO members about these issues. The Committee envisions a membership including those
located in Canada as well as those whose organizations seek or are interested in IP protection in Canada.
