Marque D'or
NATURE OF BUSINESS:
Marque d'Or is a search house providing technical support,
mainly to the legal sector, with respect to the practice of
corporate/commercial law. Since 1991, Marque d'Or has been
involved in a research and development project, the goals of
which are to computerize name and trade-mark searches, to
automate a number of commercial law documents and contracts and
to render these services more accessible and efficient.
COMPANY BACKGROUND AND HISTORY:
Marque d'Or can trace its history back to 1929 when W.D.
Armstrong, a company specializing in the supply of corporate
stamps and seals, was founded. During the 1960's and 1970's,
Marque d'Or expanded its range of products to other legal
supplies. In 1979, it added corporate name searches to its
services and, in 1982, W.D. Armstrong merged with the Centre
d'tudes Juridiques (C.E.J.) which provided computerized
corporate services.

Name Searches
The duty to find an original name lies with the business in
question or with legal counsel representing it. This implies
that the proposed name must be compared with other existing
names before it may be used. Marque d'Or currently conducts
such searches and will soon broaden its services to include
trade-mark searches.
Corporate Information
Upon request, Marque d'Or will transmit all information on a
company which is available from the government, such as the
jurisdiction in which it is incorporated, its date of
incorporation, its corporate name, etc. It will also obtain
for its clients certified copies of the certificates of
incorporation and other government documents.
Verification And Filing Of Documents
After pick-up from the client's offices of the articles of
incorporation and notices to be filed with the Inspector General
or the Director, Marque d'Or verifies the documents in order to
detect any error likely to delay their filing.
Computerized Corporate Services
These services essentially focus on the incorporation of a
company and the drafting of its organizational proceedings.
Marque d'Or also sells shelf (i.e., pre-incorporated) companies
and is able to provide full-range updating services, from the
incorporation to the dissolution of a company.
Movable Hypothecs
Together with Info-Titres, Marque d'Or, through CCNS Quebec,
offers movable hypothec (personal property security)
registrations as well as related computerized search services.
On-line Information And Technical Support Centre
Marque d'Or's goal is to establish an information and technical
support centre with respect to the practice of
corporate/commercial law in Canada. This centre will be
available on the information highway as a World Wide Web site
and geared mainly towards users who are legal professionals or
aspire to become professionals. Thanks to its intelligent
bi-directional communication features, the system will allow
transactions to be carried out in conjunction with the client.
Thus, name and trade-mark searches in Canada will be conducted
on the basis of phonetic equivalencies with the help of a
knowledge-based system. Marque d'Or will also provide
information in this field and a bulletin board which will
enable exchanges with users.
