However, the simplest thing is to find out whether proof of authenticity, or a patent, is displayed when the product comes into Canada. If there are 10 containers, the customs official will have to know, for instance, that these containers are suppose to contain electrical products which are accompanied with a patent as evidence. We can find out who ordered the products. If it is a Canadian company and if the shipment is labelled with its patent, we can presume that the products are authentic and respectful of the patent.
Would it be possible to proceed in this way? Regarding resources, the fact that we are losing $20 or $30 billion per year should encourage us to invest in an effort to mitigate these losses.
