The IP Canada Report was published on January 22, 2019. This annual publication contains the most recent statistics and trends in intellectual property (IP) usage by Canadians and by foreign entities in Canada. 
Here are some of the key statistics worth noting:
  • In 2017, trademark applications showed the most significant growth (8%) with industrial designs (6%) and patents (1%) following suit. This may be compared with the previous year (2016) in which there was a 9% growth for industrial design, 4% for trademarks and, again, marginal growth for patents.
  • Trademark applications have increased significantly over the past ten years.
  • Trademark applications filed in Canada had a majority made by entities in Canada (44%), then the United States (29%), with China (4%) and the United Kingdom (3%) following close behind.
  • The largest growth of applications filed in Canada has been from China, a growth of 50%.
  • International trademark filings by Canadian companies have grown, with the majority being in the United States.
  • CIPO forecasts that 10 years after Canada accedes to the Madrid Protocol, a quarter of all Canadian applications will be filed abroad via the Madrid system.
  • The largest number of patent applications filed in 2017 emanated from the United States, with Canada second, and Germany, Japan and France not far behind.
  • Since 2008, patent applications in Canada have declined by 17%, whereas filings abroad by Canadians increased 13% from 2007 to 2016
  • The countries filing the most industrial design applications in Canada are the United States (53%) and UK (5%).
