Competition law 2015 Comp Trib 3

Canadian Real Estate Association - Reasons for Order and Order regarding the interpretation of the consent agreement

Interpreting the consent agreement as a whole and in light of the Competition Act and evidentiary record, clause 3(e)(ii)/(iii) does not require CREA to permit direct public linkage from REALTOR.ca to private seller contact information nor does it prohibit CREA from requiring that pages linked from REALTOR.ca not display seller contact information on the landing page; on the evidence CREA's rules do not, in their application, prevent or discriminate against mere postings and the Commissioner failed to prove otherwise on a balance of probabilities, so the motion is dismissed.

  • Consent agreement interpretation
  • Abuse of dominant position
  • Enforcement of tribunal orders
  • Mls systems and realtor.ca linking policies
  • Discrimination against alternative business models

Minister of Human Resources and Skills Development v. J. M.

The Tribunal concluded it lacks statutory authority under the current Social Security Tribunal Regulations to grant the Minister's requested order; the PAB's prior rule-based authority to issue such orders was not carried forward into the SST Regulations, therefore the request to allow the appeal and dismiss the disability application for non-compliance must be dismissed.

Premier Career - Ordonnance obligeant aux défendeurs de retourner la somme de 10 500$ au Commissaire et de payer les honoraires et débours du Commissaire (traduction professionnelle française non révisée)

Because the Federal Court of Appeal allowed the commissioner's appeal and granted relief under s.74.1, and because Minto Roy was unrepresented (so two counsel were not justified), the Tribunal ordered restitution of $10,500 to the commissioner and assessed the commissioner's recoverable costs at $33,631.18.

  • Restitution of costs
  • Assessment of party-and-party costs
  • Self-representation
  • Enforcement of tribunal orders

Competition law 2012 Comp Trib 13

Nadeau Poultry Farm - Reasons and Order regarding Westco's request to enforce an undertaking

The Tribunal has jurisdiction to enforce an undertaking as to damages given in support of interim relief under s.104 of the Competition Act, pursuant to s.8 of the Competition Tribunal Act, because enforcement is incidental and necessary to the power to grant interlocutory relief; however the Tribunal retains equitable discretion to refuse an inquiry into damages and, given Westco's deliberate and flagrant breach of the Interim Order, motivated by prospect of financial gain and defeating the purpose of the order, special circumstances exist to deny Westco leave to enforce the undertaking.

  • Undertaking as to damages
  • Interim injunction
  • Refusal to deal
  • Contempt
  • Enforcement of tribunal orders
  • Leave to proceed
