Survey evidence is well suited to shedding light on the resemblance between two marks, or lack thereof, if this is not already evident on the face of the marks. In such situations a word association test may be helpful, but requires proper context and controls in the design of the questionnaire. For example, the applicant for the trademark NORDIC in association with tires presented a survey on the issue of resemblance in an appeal of a decision rendered by the Trademarks Opposition Board, in Canadian Tire Corp. v. Accessoires d'autos Nordiques Inc. The latter Quebec-based retailer had opposed the registration of NORDIC in association with tires, on the grounds that it was too similar to the sound and idea suggested by its own mark, NORDIQUES used in association with auto-parts in Quebec.

The common law doctrine of “respondeat superior” or “let the master answer” is set up in the seventeenth-century England. The theory behind this doctrine is that one employers could protect the public from wrongful acts better by controlling their its employees’ behaviors and compensating damages caused by their its employees. Consequently, the employers may be liable for unlawful actions of employees committed within the course of their employment. For instance, if one delivery driver negligently causescaused the crash while on duty, liability could be extended to his employer. However, if this driver drovedrives out to a bar for having fun with his friends and hit the pedestrian, the employer may would not hold responsibility because the employee uses the car for personal reasons and outside the scope of employment.
