Is that the case for all the banks? Are there any that would be prepared to disclose that data to the Competition Bureau, for example, if it were to keep the information confidential and not disclose it to your competitors but give us only the average? It seems to me that would not be highly compromising information. Since there is competition on the market supposedly, generally speaking the average should always be the same. It would be surprising if the transaction fees of one bank were $1.50 and those of another bank 18¢. So those fees must be quite similar.
