What does a major reform of the Canadian competition law mean for merger control reviews?

Join us for the third episode of our Dentons Calling series, where we explore the implications of the proposed changes to the competition law in Canada. Hear from Sandy Walker from our Toronto office as she explains, in a call with Maren Tamke, how the Merger Control regime will modify the notification threshold, address concerns about “killer acquisitions”, modify the substantive assessment to exclude efficiency defenses and explicitly include labor-related aspects as well as procedural changes preventing the parties from closing.
