Re: Copyright Registration - US vs. Canada[ Follow Ups ] [ Post Followup ] [ Copyright Forum ] [ FAQ ] Posted by M.

The copyright office does not accept copies of your work. : How is the Canadian copyright useful at all? It says nothing about the content of your work at a certain time. All it says is that I had an intention to create a work with a certain title at a given time; that work may not even exist yet. How is that a copyright and how would it be enforced in court? : Should a Canadian submit copyright applications to the US registar? : Should a Canadian supplement their Canadian copyright with the services of a Notary Public? Isn't a US copyright submission still better than this option? : Please help!!! This doesn't make sense! : Thanks in advance.
