For both Canadian and International companies doing business in Canada, securing a “.ca” domain name is a critical part of a successful intellectual property strategy. This includes ensuring that any online presence is aligned with branding and trademark strategy.

In some cases, another party may be using a domain identical or similar to your trademark or trade name. This can result in customers being confused and loss of revenue. 

Domain disputes in Canada are decided pursuant to the Canadian Internet Registration Authority’s (CIRA) Dispute Resolution Policy (CDRP).
