Trademark law protects business names, logos, and slogans--"marks"--used in trade. The intent is to protect consumers from fraud in the marketplace.

In Canada is it legal to have a trademark without registering it?

It is not mandatory to trademark your business identity in Canada. A common law trademark is a non-registered trademark that is typically implemented in order to show the intent to trademark. Unfortunately, common law trademarks are difficult to defend legally as no registration has been conducted, though they can be very important in the process of appealing an application for a trademark. It is possible for one to appeal a trademark process by arguing that they have been utilizing the name for a longer period of time and be successful. It is, however, true that the only way to protect a mark is to register it as a trademark. For more on Canadian Trademarks visit the link below.
