Chief Justice Crampton reveals that the Competition Bureau has proposed remedies it wants the companies to make to win its approval for Rogers-Shaw deal
By showing evidence that carrying out the proposed relief would satisfy competition law, Chief Justice Crampton said, it would be possible to “streamline the upcoming trial,” making it unnecessary for the bureau to try to block the merger entirely.
The companies can reach a settlement with the bureau outside of court at any time, even after the hearings have begun. According to Michael Osborne, a competition lawyer at law firm Cozen O’Connor, the letter from Justice Campton “looks like a very strong hint” that the companies should consider doing just that.
