Competition law enforcement in the Canadian agriculture and agri-food sectors
Canada's agriculture and agri-food sectors are critical contributors to the national economy, significantly influencing GDP, employment and export performance. Alysha Manji-Knight and Umang Khandelwal co-authored a recent article for Competition Policy International examining how the Canadian Competition Bureau approached two recent merger reviews in the agricultural sector. In the context of recent amendments to the Competition Act, the article also explores the Competition Bureau's positions on certain important points of law, and potential insight into the Competition Bureau's position in the forthcoming revisions to its merger enforcement guidelines.
