Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The Competition Act has changed its ways
New amendments lighting up the maze
Since nineteen eighty-six we've waited long
Now twenty twenty-three has made us strong
Consumer welfare was the only test
But now we're looking at what serves us best
Economic growth and innovation too
Public interest guides what we pursue

[Chorus]
C-R-E-A-T-E that's what you need to know
Consumer welfare, Rivalry, Economic growth will show
Adaptability, Trade, Environment's the way
Six factors now instead of one today
What they know that you don't yet
New policy goals you can't forget

[Verse 2]
Market concentration used to slide on by
Now structural presumptions help us try
When market share hits sixty percent or more
The burden shifts like never seen before
Dominant firms must prove their mergers clean
Instead of challengers making the scene
Evidence rules have been turned around
Making competition easier to be found

[Chorus]
C-R-E-A-T-E that's what you need to know
Consumer welfare, Rivalry, Economic growth will show
Adaptability, Trade, Environment's the way
Six factors now instead of one today
What they know that you don't yet
New policy goals you can't forget

[Bridge]
Labor markets now have protection strong
Wage-fixing agreements won't last long
Private actions get their day in court
Penalties climbing, no more last resort
From reactive to proactive stance
Competition Bureau gets its chance

[Verse 3]
Digital markets face a brand new test
Platform power can't suppress the rest
Behavioral remedies join the fight
Structural breakups shine their light
International coordination grows
As global competition ebbs and flows

[Chorus]
C-R-E-A-T-E that's what you need to know
Consumer welfare, Rivalry, Economic growth will show
Adaptability, Trade, Environment's the way
Six factors now instead of one today
What they know that you don't yet
New policy goals you can't forget

[Outro]
Reform is here, the game has changed
Competition law's been rearranged
Learn these rules, make them your own
In this new world you're not alone
