To imply that Competition Law in Canada is weak because AU is trying to get thrown out its order to sell a terminal is simply misguided. No law should be considered weak simply because it is enabling. Competition Law in Canada has a provision that enables parties in AU’s situation to be heard. In this situation AU feels that the grain handling environment has changed since the order was made and that the divestiture would never have been ordered under the current situation. Whether you agree with their argument or not they have that option and that is ultimately fair, logical and reasonable. Without this provision, there would be good reason to squawk; the alternative would be an intractable government and bureaucracy.
