Naheed Nenshi: 'Greenwashing' provisions of Bill C-59 are ill-conceived, lack benefits and have potential for unintended consequences.

The best solution is to abandon these provisions and enforce existing laws, but there are ways the Competition Tribunal must act now, he says.

The Competition Bureau should work closely with stakeholders to develop clear, specific definitions of terms and provide detailed guidance on compliance requirements and guidelines, he writes.

There must also be thoughtful collaboration with businesses, ongoing critical evaluation of the legislation.
