The other part of our mandate is really about promoting competition, and that is where our market study powers fall. The purpose of doing market studies is really to get a better sense about how competition is working from a holistic perspective as compared to looking at specific conduct that might be alleged or at a specific merger that might be proposed. The outcomes of our market studies tend to be more aimed at governments, and they often include recommendations about how we can try to improve competition in Canada.
