“Our goal should not merely be to bounce back from tough times, it should be to bounce forward.

Because the strongest economy is not necessarily the one best able to preserve the status quo. It is the one best able to adapt when the status quo changes.

And that is where competition becomes fundamental.”

- Interim Commissioner of Competition Jeanne Pratt at the The Canadian Bar Association / L'Association du Barreau canadien Fall Conference

We’ve reached an agreement with the Quebec Professional Association of Real Estate Brokers to increase access to Centris real estate data.

This data helps shape some of the biggest financial decisions Quebecers make.

Greater access to real estate information will support the development of new tools and services for the benefit of Quebec brokers and consumers.

Key information like sale prices, listing history, property characteristics, and other data used in real estate brokerage services will now be easier to access.

Today, our team began presenting our case against DoorDash before the Competition Tribunal.

Our investigation found that consumers were unable to purchase food and other items at the advertised price on DoorDash’s websites and mobile applications. This was due to the addition of mandatory fees at checkout.

We also allege that certain mandatory fees give the impression that they are taxes, where, in reality, they are charges imposed at DoorDash’s discretion.

Canadians should be able to trust the initial advertised price. That’s why we’re asking the Tribunal to require DoorDash to:
▪️stop the deceptive price and discount advertising;
▪️stop portraying fees as taxes;
▪️pay a penalty

We welcome Nortera and B&G Foods’ joint decision not to proceed with their proposed transaction involving the Green Giant and Le Sieur brands.

The companies’ decision comes after we asked the Competition Tribunal to block the merger, but before the Tribunal had issued a decision.

We are pleased that this transaction will not proceed, as our investigation found it was likely to lead to higher prices and fewer choices.

As Canadians increasingly encounter AI in their daily lives, transparency matters.

In our submission to Canadian Innovation’s consultation on advancing AI transparency in Canada, we recommend measures that:
✅ Help consumers make informed marketplace decisions
✅ Preserve competition by avoiding unnecessary burdens for businesses, particularly smaller firms and new entrants
✅ Focus on harms rather than specific technologies

What is a minimum advertised pricing policy? 🔍🛒

It’s a policy that sets the lowest price at which a retailer may advertise a supplier’s product.

These policies can have important impacts on competition:
▪️They can make deals harder to find.
▪️Stores may compete less on price.
▪️New or discount retailers may be put at a disadvantage.

Many Canadians are struggling with the cost of groceries. Having access to lower prices and knowing where to find them is particularly important.
