Thank you, Mr. Chair. Feel free to take that out of my time, because I'm out of here at 2:30.
My questions are simple, wholly for the Competition Bureau. There have been discussions about “closure”, “merger”--those words. We're talking about one refinery here.
If Shell decided to get out of the refinery business altogether and they were going to close every single refinery they have across Canada, would the Competition Bureau have anything to say, any legislative authority to say anything about it?
Two, can the Competition Bureau tell a company, no, you cannot close, you have to stay open and operate?
