DANIEL GLOVER IS NATIONAL CO-LEAD OF OUR CYBER/DATA GROUP AND A MEMBER OF OUR
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY, PRIVACY, TECHNOLOGY, CONSUMER PRODUCTS & RETAIL GROUP,
FRANCHISE & DISTRIBUTION, AND APPELLATE GROUPS.

Daniel has significant experience in all aspects of information law. His
practice takes a 360-degree approach to data: he helps clients extract the
tremendous value inherent in data, while at the same time managing the complex
risks associated with data. He has worked on the highest-stakes files in the
field, having advised clients in relation to the three largest data breaches in
Canadian history and having argued landmark cases before the Supreme Court of
Canada and other leading appellate courts.

The breadth and excellence of Daniel’s practice are widely recognized. Chambers
Canada ranks Daniel as a leading lawyer in three separate areas: Intellectual
Property: Litigation, Media & Entertainment, and Privacy & Data Protection.
Daniel also plays a key role in McCarthy Tétrault’s Band One Information
Technology practice.

Daniel’s insights come from significant exposure to the many different areas of
law touching on the exploitation and protection information, including privacy,
cybersecurity, breach response, copyright and trademark infringement, privilege,
anti-spam and marketing compliance, confidential information, competition law,
constitutional law, and Internet law.

This exposure touches upon a broad diversity of industries. Daniel has advised
numerous clients in the technology, social media, consumer products, retail,
financial services, insurance, entertainment, gaming, automotive, industrial and
health services fields, including in the class action setting and also before
key privacy, health privacy, and marketing regulators across Canada.

In his litigation practice, Daniel delivered oral submissions on behalf of the
International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI) and other creative
industry stakeholders in the landmark decision of Equustek Solutions Inc. v.
Google Inc., 2017 SCC 73, a case that has drawn global attention, as it created
a new form of equitable relief allowing courts to order search engines to remove
links to infringing content worldwide and across all of their platforms. This
case has been reported in Fortune, Wired, The New York Times, and the Hollywood
Reporter, among other publications.

Daniel has also represented clients in numerous other complex matters before the
Supreme Court of Canada, the Federal Court of Appeal, the Federal Court, the
British Columbia Court of Appeal, the Ontario Court of Appeal, the Ontario
Superior Court of Justice, the Copyright Board of Canada, the Canadian
Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission, and the Trademarks
Opposition Board.

Beyond his successful representation in the Equustek case, Daniel was counsel in
successful appeals at the Supreme Court of Canada in two leading copyright cases
in 2012, appeared at the Supreme Court again in 2013 and 2015 in important
appeals on the test for copyright infringement and the application of copyright
law to new technologies. These cases were instrumental in McCarthy Tétrault LLP
being named Managing IP’s Canada Copyright Firm of the Year for 2018 and 2019.
Lexpert has named five of his cases in its annual “Top 10 cases” rankings (for
2012, 2014, 2015 and 2017), and another was named a Managing IP Milestone Case
of the Year for 2016. Daniel also led the drafting of an amicus brief on
international copyright law standards at the Supreme Court of the United States
in 2014.

business-oriented approach" in connection with McCarthy Tétrault’s Tier One

client stating that he “is just brilliant. He is very very sharp and is
exceptionally conscientious, smart, courteous and very funny too”. Daniel is
also ranked by Chambers for his intellectual property practice. In Lexpert’s
Special Edition: Litigation 2022, the publication recognized Dan’s work with
Society of Composers, Authors and Music Publishers of Canada, et al. v.
Entertainment Software Association, et al., 2022 SCC 30 as one of Lexpert’s Top
10 Business Decisions for 2021–2022.
