CANADIAN TRADEMARK LAWYER:

"What exactly is a Trademark?"


A "trademark" is a word or a phrase or a number or a design or a shape (or any combination of these) which is adapted to distinguish the products or services of one business from those of another. For example, in the context of soft drinks, the trademark "Coca-Cola" distinguishes the soft drink products of one soft drink producer from the soft drinks of other soft drink producers.
