When I started this 10 years ago, essentially I was laughed out of court; in a lot of cases the prosecutors wouldn't even look at these cases. It's changed somewhat, but still, within the judiciary, I don't know if it's a lack of education or if they don't want to take the problem seriously.
First of all, there's law enforcement; you have a problem getting the products seized. You need the resources to do it. It's a whole chain. But you have to find a prosecutor willing to take the case, and once they're willing to prosecute it, you have to get it in before the courts.
For them, if they're going to take it seriously and actually take it to the extreme, the Copyright Act has all these great sentences, but they're never applied as far as the severity of it is concerned. In dealing with the trademark legislation, there are no criminal sanctions under the Trade-marks Act. Anytime you deal with certification marks, they're all under trademark legislation, and there's nothing there that can deal with it. You have to go to the Criminal Code, and those sections were never set up to deal with this. Then you're going back and forth, to the Department of Justice, to criminal prosecutions, you're trying to Crown-shop, and you're trying to get it before the courts. At the end of the day, this may take two years, and the sentences, essentially, up to this point, except for a few rare occasions, are a joke.
