Canada’s Competition Tribunal has sided with the Competition Bureau over CCS Corporation’s completed acquisition of Complete Environmental Inc. The Tribunal has ordered CCS to divest the Babkirk hazardous waste landfill site, finding that the acquisition would substantially prevent competition in the market for hazardous waste disposal in Northeastern British Columbia. The Bureau had filed its appeal with the Tribunal in January 2011; the decision marks the Bureau’s first court challenge to a merger since 2005.
