Complying with Canadian advertising laws can be challenging for brands and agencies. Advertising in Canada is highly regulated. Some of the practical challenges include consistent enforcement by the Competition Bureau, CRTC and other enforcement agencies, increasing regulatory and enforcement focus on digital advertising (e.g., influencer marketing, online price claims and drip pricing, online disclaimers and disclosures and Canada’s anti-spam legislation, CASL) and adapting advertising and marketing campaigns to new technology, platforms and social media.
We help clients practically navigate Canada’s advertising and marketing laws offering Canadian advertising law services in relation to print, online, new media, social media and e-mail marketing and electronic marketing.
