Industry Dealers

In July 2005, the Bureau received a request for an advisory opinion on whether a proposed program might raise concern under the Competition Act. The program entailed the formation of a committee of industry dealer representatives to develop and implement best practices to maximize customer satisfaction in vehicle sales. The Bureau examined the request under the price maintenance provisions of section 61 of the Act and determined that the proposed program would not provide it with sufficient grounds to launch an inquiry under section 10 of the Act.
