Competition law seeks to promote the proper functioning of markets, in order to deliver benefits to consumers such as lower prices, choice, and innovative products. This is achieved through provisions in the Competition Act addressing price fixing, mergers which may prevent or lessen competition, and dominant firm practices which exclude competitors or create barriers to entry. The second edition of the award-winning Canadian Competition Law and Policy provides a succinct, up-to-date, and accessible analysis of the Competition Act scheme, jurisprudence, and enforcement guidance issued by the Competition Bureau. It uses extensive case examples to illuminate concepts and legal tests and reflects recent writing and developments in the area. The book also provides legislative context and history and an approachable outline of key economic concepts. The second edition also touches on emerging topics like the conduct of dominant firms in digital and data-driven markets and the strengthened rules governing the review of mergers. The three rounds of amendments between 2022 and 2024, examined in the second edition, also include a reformed test governing the behaviour of dominant firms and an expanded private enforcement regime permitting the recovery of benefits derived from anti-competitive conduct. These developments, discussed in the book, make its publication very timely, as consumers, businesspeople, legal practitioners, and policymakers alike evaluate how these changes will affect the landscape of competition law in Canada in coming years.

Competition law is centred on the idea that competitive markets can efficiently and effectively deliver the goods, services, and economic growth that society desires. It seeks to promote the proper functioning of markets in order to deliver such benefits as low prices, consumer choice, and innovative products. This is done through provisions such as criminal offences for price fixing and other anti-competitive agreements between competitors, through the review of mergers that may prevent or lessen competition, and through remedies against dominant firms that may exclude competitors or create barriers to entry. Competition laws have gained importance internationally in recent decades, and are now present in over 130 jurisdictions worldwide. Canadian Competition Law and Policy provides a succinct and accessible analysis of the Competition Act and related legislation, regulations, enforcement guidelines, and other guidance issued by the Competition Bureau. The discussion provides extensive case examples drawn from Canadian, American, European, and other competition law authorities to lluminate concepts and legal tests. The book seeks to offer students, lawyers, and others interested in the subject a practical guide to the context, objectives, and evolution of the Canadian competition law scheme by providing an overview of the jurisprudential and legislative history; an approachable outline of key economic concepts; and a review of methods and approaches applied by economists and lawyers to the analysis of competition law problems. While this book is focused on the law, the discussion also touches on topics related to the broader subject of competition policy, which deals with such matters as how competition legislation is designed and implemented, and its interplay with regulatory and other government policies that may affect the competitive market. An emerging issue in this respect is the conduct of dominant firms in digital and data-driven markets, and the extent to which competition law is equipped to address this conduct or may need to adapt or change to do so. Canadian Competition Law and Policy addresses other fascinating and challenging examples of industry structures (such as oligopolistic markets) and market conduct (such as tied selling and predatory pricing) that require a blend of business, economics, law and related disciplines for their analysis.
