Read full decision. Automatically generated summary:

Venngo Inc. appeals from the December 3, 2015 judgment of the Federal Court (per Manson J.) in Venngo Inc. v. Concierge Connection Inc. c.o.b. as Perkopolis, Morgan C. Marlowe and Richard Thomas Joynt, 2015 FC 1338 in which the Federal Court dismissed Venngo’s claims for trade-mark infringement and related actions. Venngo also appeals from the January 7, 2016 costs order of the Federal Court granting costs in the respondents’ favour in the lump sum amount of $231,000 (unreported). For the reasons that follow, I would dismiss the appeal from the judgment on the merits, but would allow the costs appeal on the basis outlined below and would remit the matter of costs to the trial judge for re-determination in accordance with these reasons.
