    CIRA election 2023

    https://dn.ca/data/avatars/s/0/37.jpg?1663625118@FM My biggest concern with the direction CIRA is that they are ignoring the domain registrants and treating the reg and renewal fees like a cash cow for special projects, travel, and unnecessary memberships. CIRA is running a huge deficit and...

    Friction Selling at GoDaddy

    Buyers of premium .ca domain names have always faced friction when buying these great domain names. There's friction through the GoDaddy registration path: Currency conversion to CAD meant that prices always seemed nonsensical because they were priced by premium domain sellers in USD inside...

    Isic.ca ordered transferred

    The design trademark asserted in the complaint CIPO Registration number TMA414189 is owned by ISIC ASSOCIATION in Denmark. The Canadian Federation of Students-Services doesn't own any trademarks resembling the word ISIC. So how does a licensee have rights in a trademark? Certainly the Canadian...

    Sedationadentalgroup.ca ordered transferred in CDRP

    There's a typo in the domain name that I carried over from copying and pasting David Lipkus' summary. The actual domain transferred was sedationdentalgroup.ca - there's no 'a' between sedation and dental group. So it was actually their main domain name. There was a transfer of ownership in the...

    Elon finally agrees to purchase Twitter.

    The Atlantic article has a link to the litigation discovery questions and responses. I didn't see any link yet for the disclosures that would contain the contested request for texts and emails about Putin and Russia.

    YCD.ca Transferred To Complainant

    The Nanaimo Airport Commission's claim to trademark rights in YCD are suspect since CIPO refused to even allow their trademark application for Nanaimo Airport YCD. I recommend that Chris orders a certified copy of the CIPO file and use it as evidence if he decides to sue for damages and...
