I understand.
I will now move on to something else.
When the Commissioner of Competition blocks a joint venture, as he did a few years ago, I feel protected as a consumer. I tell myself that the Commissioner of Competition had his reasons to say that the agreement was not good for the consumer. However, in Bill C-49, the commissioner's powers are relayed to advisory powers, and the minister can bypass them. That worries me.
Why is it necessary for the minister to be able to ignore the Commissioner of Competition's recommendations?
