The Government of Canada is Seeking the Views
of Canadians on the Enforcement of Intellectual Property Rights
Abroad
Closing date: June 15, 2006
The Government of Canada is solliciting the views of Canadians
and gathering information on the enforcement of intellectual property
rights abroad. In recent years, issues pertaining to intellectual
property rights, in particular how these rights are enforced, have
taken an important place on the agenda of a number of international
organizations, as well as in our relations with some of our most
important international partners. Canada has therefore been involved
in discussions on the enforcement of intellectual property rights
in the G-8, the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation Forum (APEC),
the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD),
the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), the World Trade
Organization (WTO) and in the context of the Security and Prosperity
Partnership (SPP) with our U.S. and Mexican partners.
One of the recurring themes in these discussions is how partner
countries can work together to combat counterfeiting and piracy
activities, and specifically how to better engage countries where
such activities are occurring.
