Thank you for the question. I'll answer in English again, if I may.
As we point out in our submission to this committee, the issue of greenwashing is a very significant issue on which the bureau has multiple, ongoing investigations. We've brought cases in the past. For example, we fined Keurig $3 million for false or misleading claims about the recyclability of its pods.
We welcome the amendment that is in Bill C-59 now, but as you point out, it's limited to products, not to claims with respect to a business or a brand as a whole being, you know, net zero by 2030 or carbon neutral. These are claims that can be false or misleading.
What we say in our report is that we recommend further study to expand the greenwashing provisions to potentially include a requirement where companies are able to substantiate those business-wide claims. It wouldn't be a situation like the amendment in Bill C-59 now, where it relates to a product and they have to have done adequate and proper testing and the proof is on them. It's more a question of whether there should be a clause that says that the company needs to be able to substantiate its claims and that the proof should be on the company.
I can indicate at a high level that these investigations into business-wide claims or brand-wide claims are extremely difficult investigations for the bureau. Obviously, we're not environmental experts; we're competition law experts. These investigations are incredibly resource-intensive. As is publicly known, we get complaints from multiple organizations to look into these types of greenwashing claims. We are pursuing them, and we take these very seriously. We can also attack them under our general false and misleading claims..., but the point in our letter is that perhaps there should be further study about expanding....
