He was selected for the ICANN Board by the Domain Name Supporting Organization for a term starting at the 1999 annual meeting and expiring in June, 2003.[1]
He has practised in all areas of intellectual property law since 1971, and has lectured and written extensively both in Canada and internationally on various aspects of trademark law, including, more recently, domain name issues.[2]
