Copyright Registration

refers to the legal framework that grants creators and authors the exclusive rights to their original literary, artistic, musical, or dramatic works. This framework is governed by the Copyright Act of Canada. Under this law, creators have the sole authority to reproduce, perform, publish, and adapt their works.
Here are the top five reasons to register your copyright:
Legal Protection: Registering your copyright provides legal evidence of your ownership of the work.
Global Protection: Copyright registration in your country often provides a foundation for protection in other countries through international copyright treaties and conventions.
Monetary Damages fees: If your registered copyright is infringed, you may be eligible for statutory damages and attorney's fees in court.
Licensing and Commercial Opportunities: Having a registered copyright can make it easier to license your work to others. Many businesses and organizations prefer to work with copyrighted material that is officially registered, as it provides them with a clear legal framework and assurance of authenticity.
