Canada has the chance to address a major source of harm online: scams. CAMP's C-34 recommendations call for tougher rules on scam ads, clearer responsibility for AI-generated content and compliance tools that create an advantage for the biggest platforms: antimonopoly.ca/strengthenin…
Monopolies cross borders. Enforcement should too.
We welcome plans for a new Canada-EU competition agreement to deepen regulatory coordination, especially where multinational firms shape markets in both jurisdictions.

Payouts from the Great Bread Price-Fixing Scandal have started to go out, but as @KeldonB from the @monopolyproject explains, the secretive case is ongoing and far from over:
CUSMA should not give Big Tech a backdoor veto over Canadian digital policy.
CAMP’s new brief argues Canada should remove restrictive digital trade rules that limit competition policy, privacy protections, data sovereignty, and platform accountability.

For nearly two decades, Canadians have paid more for packaged bread products because of a long-running price fixing arrangement. The new class action settlement offers compensation, but it also reveals how hidden coordination can distort everyday markets. #AntiMonopoly #CdnPoli
Understanding how these practices take hold is a step toward building stronger protections for consumers and open markets across Canada.
