"But the Toronto-based firm, whose founder Jennifer Wright says the Liberals failed to respond to a cease-and-desist order by a deadline last week, is moving closer to a full-blown lawsuit that could add to the growing potential legal damages the opposition Grits are facing.

Liberal party officials were still reviewing Green Shift's cease-and-desist letter, a spokesperson said Thursday. On Wednesday, in his first public comments over the dispute, Dion said, "I don't think we're hurting them at all."
Regardless of whether Dion et al think they are hurting Green Shift is not the issue. The issue is that the Liberal Party of Canada is so arrogant (or obtuse) to believe that they can hijack an existing trademark for political purposes without legal consequences.
Mind you, this "above the law" thinking has always been modus operandi for the LPOC.
We here are Goodale Watch are looking forward to Green Shift's pending lawsuit and will keep our readers up to date.
