The Canadian Competition Bureau has reportedly announced plans to launch a formal investigation into Google’s operations in the country, though has mostly kept mum on the subject. The regulator has not yet requested any documents or information from the search giant, which is currently facing scrutiny from the European Commission and just recently resolved an investigation with US regulators. The Bureau also declined to discuss the case. According to reports, Google controls just under 90 percent of the service engine sector as of last April.
