Derived from the renowned multi-volume International Encyclopaedia of Laws, this monograph provides a survey and analysis of the rules concerning intellectual property rights in Canada. It covers every type of intellectual property right in depth – copyright and neighbouring rights, patents, utility models, trademarks, trade names, industrial designs, plant variety protection, chip protection, trade secrets, and confidential information. Particular attention is paid throughout to recent developments and trends. The analysis approaches each right in terms of its sources in law and in legislation, and proceeds to such legal issues as subject matter of protection, conditions of protection, ownership, transfer of rights, licences, scope of exclusive rights, limitations, exemptions, duration of protection, infringement, available remedies, and overlapping with other intellectual property rights. The book provides a clear overview of intellectual property legislation and policy, and at the same time offers practical guidance on which sound preliminary decisions may be based. Lawyers representing parties with interests in Canada will welcome this very useful guide, and academics and researchers will appreciate its value in the study of comparative intellectual property law.

This treatise on Canadian intellectual property law, written by members of the I.P. practice group of Stikeman, Elliott, is a comprehensive source for answering many of the I.P. questions that arise for both lawyers and corporate counsel. With technologies and new ideas driving today’s economy as never before, intellectual property is a key factor in business success. While intellectual property is especially vital for knowledge-based industries, its importance cuts across sectors as well as national boundaries. To meet this challenge, Stikeman, Elliott takes a multi-disciplinary approach to the practice. Their team comprises dynamic and highly creative professionals, including intellectual property, corporate and international trade lawyers, who bring a wide range of training and experience to every transaction. This expertise has been critical to businesses throughout Canada and around the world who want to preserve, protect and exploit their intellectual property to the fullest while reducing the risks of jeopardizing their intellectual property assets. In addition to this work being an eminently practical reference source, it also provides insightful practice commentaries and detailed analysis of all major intellectual property law subjects. In sum, the Intellectual Property Law of Canada is a publication that anyone with Canadian I.P. interests or questions should not be without.
