The commission, which was chaired by retired clerk of the Privy Council of CanadaRobert Broughton Bryce of Ottawa and completed by tele-journalist Pierre Nadeau of Montreal, and lawyer Robert Warren Vincent Dickerson of Vancouver, was tasked with studying the nature and effect of corporate concentration, its economic and social implications, and whether any safeguards were required to protect the public interest;[2] Dickerson had been in 1971 the lead co-author of Proposals for a New Business Corporations Law for Canada.
The commission presented its final report in 1978,[3] which made a number of recommendation but also concluded that no "radical changes" in laws governing corporate activity were required at the time.[4]
Influenceedit
In 1986, the federal government of Brian Mulroney introduced the Competition Act, to change Canada's competition laws.
