from Justice Angela Furlanetto, Wei Meng’s intention in trademarking the “JU DIAN & Design Mark” in June 2017 was to either extort money from the Beijing Judian Restaurant Co. Ltd. chain, or to “use the JU DIAN Trademarks to obtain money from others.”
In June 2017 the company decided to open its Vancouver restaurant and applied to register the JU DIAN & Design Mark for use in marketing and promoting the restaurant. According to an affidavit presented in court, in April 2019 Meng went to the Vancouver restaurant and asked to speak to the owner.In May, 2019, Meng declared to the Canadian Intellectual Property Office that he was using the trademark for his own “restaurant services” business.
