Canada’s anti-fake legislation moves closer
Canada’s Combating Counterfeit Products Act is finally moving forward after months of debate, passing a third reading in Parliament.
The CCPA was first introduced in March 2013 and re-introduced the following November with identical wording, and is designed to provide rights owners and enforcement authorities with a framework for combating counterfeiting, including new civil and criminal penalties for trademark and copyright infringements.
