Ryan Turnbull at the Industry, Science and Technology Committee

Thanks, Chair.

Thanks to all of you for being here today; it's great to have you.

I note that many of us have mentioned grocery prices in previous rounds of questions. Obviously, competition is a really big part of our government's agenda to help stabilize food prices, but not only food prices. Certainly, there's consolidation in quite a number of industries in Canada that I think merits serious consideration when it comes to competition reforms.

Mr. Kennedy, maybe you could start by speaking generally about our approach to competition reform and how that's really going to help both stabilize and, hopefully, in the long term, provide more choice and lower prices for Canadians.
