Trademarks Act, Section 7(b):

Trademarks Act, Section 22:

When brainstorming to come up with a distinctive keyword for your corporate name, do not spend too much time thinking about the keyword. Rather try having 30 second brainstorming sessions.  You should distract yourself for 3 to 5 minutes between each brainstorming session.

TRADEMARK SEARCHES

You may manually search keywords for free on CIPO's database.  In addition, you may also order an automated search to find confusingly similar names, such as those generated by TM and TL NUANS reports.  In a trademark application, you must represent to the Canadian trade-marks office that: you, the applicant, are satisfied that you are entitled to use the trade-mark you are applying for in Canada in association with the wares and services for which you are seeking trademark protection.
