RIN IP Partners were happy to have Mr. Kohji Suzuki and Ms. Jamie-Lynn Kraft from the Canadian firm Smart & Biggar LLP visit our office. They provided us with a comprehensive and detailed overview of the sweeping changes to Canada’s Trademark Law and CIPO policies that took effect in June of 2019. Of major note was Canada’s joining the Madrid Protocol, as well as the elimination of “use” requirements at the application stage.
