Drake’s attempt to trademark the warning label that appears on Canadian cannabis products seems to have been a failure.
Although Canada’s ownership of the label was cited as a reason the application was rejected, the primary reason seemed to be that Drake wants to use the symbols for apparel like sneakers, hoodies and other streetwear, but that Pineapple Express Inc. already owns the trademark in that context. The U.S. government publicly filed the rejection letter, which outlined a variety of reasons for the refusal, including that the symbol could be used to sell federally prohibited products like cannabis, or confused with others symbols.
TheGrowthOp Drake was smart to try regardless It was a good investment had he succeeded The royalties would have been huge and all it takes is some bored bureaucrat that just rubber stamps the application
