It's been said that the phrase "it's an ill wind blows nobody any good" originated in the sixteenth century. Starting in 2025, Canada's trademark office will be starting a pilot project to gain insight into the number of Canadian trademark registrations no longer in use. The goal is laudable. The execution may cause some trademark owners time and expense, hence the "ill wind." Steven Z. Raber discusses further. https://lnkd.in/gACDSgax
About us
Fillmore Riley is a highly regarded and accomplished full-service Manitoba law firm. Since 1883, our lawyers have been entrusted to work on some of the most complex and sophisticated transactions and litigation involving Canada’s most prominent companies, institutions and individuals. As a result, market sources routinely recommend our lawyers for our proficiency in banking and finance, securities, taxation, real estate and property development and litigation. We advise a wide range of public and private sector clients, including large and small corporations, financial institutions, major national insurers, municipalities and professional organizations and associations on their mission-critical business transactions and commercial litigation. Fillmore Riley also advises individuals on their wills, trusts and estates, tax, family law and civil litigation matters. Fillmore Riley LLP is located in Winnipeg, on Treaty 1 Territory and the National Homeland of the Red River Métis. The Province of Manitoba encompasses the ancestral lands of the Anishinaabe (Ojibway, Saulteaux), Dakota (Oyate), Assiniboine (Nakota), Anishininew (Oji-Cree), Ininew (Cree), Dene, and Inuit. We acknowledge that most of us are guests to this land where we are privileged to live, work and find comfort. We recognize that privilege has often come at the expense of Indigenous people, including the Shoal Lake 40 First Nation in Treaty 3 where our water is sourced. We are committed to building a relationship based on mutuality, reciprocity and respect with the land and its Indigenous people, and to be stewards of the land we occupy.

Whether you have been actively following along or have heard it mentioned in passing, if you work in the unionized context, you are probably aware that the labour landscape in Manitoba recently underwent a fundamental shift. Tamara Reimer and Fred Thiessen discuss The Labour Relations Amendment Act and some of the key changes that employers and unions would do well to make note of as we enter into this new era of labour relations. https://lnkd.in/g5Z5N2GD
