The Competition Tribunal is a specialized body that hears cases involving bid-rigging, monopolies, deceptive marketing practices, price fixing, and related activities that may cause economic harm to Canadians. Competition Tribunal cases tend to be major national cases that involve complex economic and legal issues.
Although Competition Tribunal cases are not criminal in nature, they can result in significant penalties and consequences for Canadian and international companies with cases before it. Sometimes, the Competition Tribunal will even involve itself in class action claims against major manufacturers. For example, on December 19, 2016, the Competition Tribunal ordered Volkswagen and Audi to compensate millions of customers who bought cars which had undergone inaccurate emissions testing in the case of The Commissioner of Competition v. Volkswagen Group Canada and Audi Canada Inc.
