I don't disagree with the motion, but I believe there are massive changes to the Competition Act in the budget implementation bill that is going ahead right now. It will change the Competition Act substantially when it's voted on today.

I suggest we have somebody come in--not from the Competition Bureau itself--to explain how those changes in the budget implementation act affect the Competition Act. There are a lot of changes there, and I don't understand them all.
