Schlegel Health Care Inc. v. Edgewood Health Network Inc., 2025 FC 1639
Justice McDonald - 2025-10-03
Read full decision. Automatically generated summary:
On this Motion, the Plaintiffs seek an interlocutory injunction to restrain the Defendant from continuing to use the word GUARDIANS in any form. ... The Plaintiffs and the Defendant are business competitors and are the two largest providers of inpatient and outpatient mental health and addiction services in Canada. They offer services and programs specifically targeted to “guardians” (first responders, military personnel, and veterans) and their families. ... For the reasons below, I am not satisfied that the Plaintiffs have established a strong prima facie case to assert an unregistered trademark to the GUARDIANS word. I am also not satisfied that there is sufficient evidence of goodwill in the claimed mark, nor irreparable harm; therefore, I am dismissing the Plaintiffs’ Motion for an interlocutory injunction.
