Canadian Hosting Providers - how do you handle copyright and trademark complaints

Hello, I'm wondering how other Canadian Hosting Providers handle copyright and trademark complaints about customers on their network. I'm thinking of just handling them the same as a DMCA notification should be handled but since there's no forced takedown provisions in the Canadian copyright act (that I know of?) it's difficult to say what is better. I'd kind of like if our customers could enjoy some freedom from the sledgehammer of the DMCA *but* still being subject to copyright and trademark infringement laws of course. I have to admit - this is my ignorance. I'm quite familiar with the DMCA and the litigation that usually ensues during american trademark infringement already but not Canadian copyright laws or trademark laws. I do intend to consult with a real lawyer about this eventually but I want to have intelligent questions or suggestions before that happens. Also how are trademark infringement issues handled differently than copyright issues in Canada? -- Landon Stewart <LandonStewart () Gmail com>
