Market Studies and Competition Promotion in Canada

On November 17, 2022, the Minister of Innovation, Science, and Industry launched a review of the Competition Act (Act) to identify ways to improve Canada’s competition policy framework. The Minister is seeking Canadians’ views on broader changes to the Act and “its enforcement framework, including changes that will help the Competition Bureau better protect consumers and the integrity of the marketplace.” The review is focused on key areas of the enforcement framework, including the scope of the Act, the enforcement methods used by the Competition Bureau (Bureau), and the corrective measures that can be applied under the Act. Supporting this review is an extensive discussion paper prepared by Innovation, Science, and Economic Development Canada.
