Since a patent is a license to exclusively produce, and not to withhold from production, it is therefore possibly to apply to federal court in in Canada for a forced patent license, if it can be shown the the patent holder has failed to distribute the invention. Of course, if the invention is a military secret, other rules apply. -- Robert Ames P.O. Box 724, Station 'A' 416-593-6000 Toronto, Ontario, Canada
