Drug regulators in Canada and in other nations require innovative pharmaceutical companies to submit undisclosed clinical or other data as a condition of approving the marketing of new pharmaceutical products-the origination of which involves considerable effort and investment. Data protection regulations were enacted in Canada in 2006, which-to some extent-closed a loophole in intellectual property law that had previously left innovative companies with no effective data protection for their clinical data. Although the regulations were intended to clarify and effectively implement Canada's international treaty obligations in the spirit of innovation, a review of Canada's first decade of effective data protection shows that Health Canada and Canadian courts have interpreted the scope of data protection for innovative drugs in a narrow manner that undermines and is inconsistent with the intent of the regulations. As the 10-year anniversary of data protection in Canada is this year (2016), this article demonstrates the need to advance Canada's data protection regime into one that consistently contributes to the promotion of investment in pharmaceutical research and development, to the mutual advantage of innovators and patients, in a manner conducive to the social and economic welfare of Canadians.
