Pending Amendments to the Environmental Claims Provisions of the Competition Act: In Conversation with Julien Beaulieu

In June 2024, the Competition Act was amended to require businesses to have testing or substantiation to support certain environmental claims, and in June 2025, the Competition Tribunal became empowered to grant leave to private parties to bring deceptive marketing cases, including in relation to environmental claims, if the Tribunal is satisfied that it would be in the “public interest.”  In November 2025 the Government proposed further amendments to the environmental claims provisions of the Competition Act that would walk back some of the earlier amendments not long after they took effect.  Julien Beaulieu, who was our guest in previous episodes about environmental claims that aired in April 2023 and September 2024, returns to share his insights on this important development.
