Most people choose detailed report to save time and money. A search report tells the likelihood of getting the trademark approved or declined. The detailed report lists down exact & similar names in all provinces in Canada. A short report does not do such. A decline has also risk of loosing the whole money since govt. does not give refund.

A word mark is registered in a standard keyboard character, that gives the protection of a name or a slogan or a phrase written in any style or font. On the other hand, a design mark is registered as an image (normally logo) which may consists of slogans, words, foreign words, symbols, shapes in various style, size, font and color etc.

Generally a word mark gives wider level of protection, while a design mark gives more distinctive level of protection. It depends on products and services that are relevant with this trademark. For developing a brand, we suggest to do both, word mark and design mark. However, if you want to do only one mark, generally, we suggest to do a word mark first. When a word mark is approved, adding a design mark (logo) can make it more distinctive and protects you from possible objections.
