Source: CIPO (Canadian Intellectual Property Office) New: Canadian Copyrights Database
According to the CIPO site this new searchable database, "...includes all copyrights which were registered as of October 1, 1991, pursuant to the Copyright Act. In some cases registrations prior to 1991 were entered into the database due to request for certified copies. This includes traditional copyrights (original literary, artistic, dramatic and musical works) and copyright in other subject-matter (performer's performances, sound recordings and communication signals), as well as information on licences and assignments." The database is updated daily, Monday - Friday.
