SEC’s Crypto Roundtable Reveals Friction, Few Answers
Crypto Roundtable | March 25, 2025

SEC's First Crypto Roundtable A Step Forward, But Not Far Enough
On March 21, 2025, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) held its first public roundtable focused on crypto. Interim SEC Chair, Mark Uyeda, delivered opening remarks, and started by admitting that the law hasn't kept pace with digital asset innovation.
See: SEC Commissioner Peirce Consults on Crypto Regulations
Uyeda pointed out that U.S. courts can’t even agree on how to apply the Howey Test, a legal rule from 1946 that’s often used to decide if something is an investment contract. Some courts say what happens after someone buys a token matters most. Others say what happens before the sale is enough. This kind of confusion makes it hard for the industry to know what rules to follow. While the SEC's hope is that the roundtable was a first step towards more clarity and a better approach towards regulating crypto, some lawmakers felt that the SEC's first crypto roundtable was a missed opportunity.
Old Questions, Few Answers
Bitcoin.com reported that the discussions were fiery. Some panelists said most crypto tokens are clearly securities. Others argued the old rules don’t fit new technologies.
- John Reed Stark, a former SEC enforcement official said he believes people are buying crypto to make money and as a result they are 'investors' not hobbyists collecting things. He also said that he's even received threats for supporting stronger crypto regulations.
- enjamin Schiffrin, a policy expert from Better Markets, added that many broker websites list crypto assets right next to displaying stocks and bonds, and if that’s how it’s being offered to the public then it doesn’t make much sense to treat digital assets differently.
- Teresa Goody Guillen, a lawyer at BakerHostetler, asked whether or not a legal rule from the 1940's (aka Howey Test) was even the right tool for crypto? She said blockchain isn’t just a new product, it’s a whole new way of doing business, and old rules might not fit.
As illustrated by the comments above, not everyone agreed and there's still no consensus on how to classify digital assets.
A Missed Opportunity for Coordination
A former prosecutor and crypto lawyer Renato Mariotti penned an OpEd for CoinDesk, said the roundtable was disappointing. While he agreed it was better than the SEC’s past approach of regulating by enforcement, he felt the discussion focused too much on old arguments instead of evaluating solutions.
See: SEC Confirms Crypto PoW Mining is Not a Security
He was also quick to point out that the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), another key regulator for crypto, wasn't involved at all or even mentioned during the session. As such the SEC missed a chance to contribute ideas that will help shape new crypto laws currently being discussed in Congress.
Outlook
Industry just wants clear rules, and in order to develop them, it's important for the SEC and CFTC to cooperate with everyone at the table. Lessons to learn here. The next roundtable will focus on DeFi and stablecoins, where clarity is also badly needed.

SEC Confirms Crypto PoW Mining is Not a Security
Regulation | March 21, 2025
Image: Freepik
SEC says Proof-of-Work mining doesn’t fall under U.S. securities laws
On March 20 2025, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's (SEC), Corporate Finance Division, issued a statement making it clear that mining crypto on proof-of-work (PoW) networks like Bitcoin isn’t considered a securities transaction. That includes both solo miners (operators) or if someone is part of a mining pool (pooled miners) operating in the U.S. do not need to register with the SEC.
Howey Test Doesn’t Apply Here
This update from the SEC gives the crypto mining community more clarity about where they stand legally in the U.S. as solo or pooled PoW miners. The message is if you’re earning tokens by providing computational effort to secure a PoW network, that doesn't count as investing in a security.
See: Fidelity Report Insights on Digital Assets in 2025
The reasoning is that the infamous Howey Test (used to help determine whether or not an activity is considered a security), is only a security if profits are expected mainly from another party's managerial or entrepreneurial work. In the case of PoW mining, the reward is derived from the miner's own work/effort and hardware, so the activity is not akin to an investment security.
The same statement applies to mining pools where many miners group together and share computing power to improve their chances of solving cryptographic puzzles to earn block rewards. Even when rewards are split and managed by a pool operator, the SEC said the core activity remains technical and administrative, and as such is not an investment contract.
Pushback from Within the SEC, but Industry Welcomes Clarity
Not everyone at the SEC agrees though. Commissioner Caroline Crenshaw issued a dissenting opinion on the same day, saying the analysis was too broad and should be handled on a case by case basis. She warned that some mining setups could involve passive income arrangements that might still fall under securities rules.
See: Marathon Bitcoin Miner Ventures into Whisky Barrels
Still, most reactions online have welcomed the added legal clarity and Bitcoin advocates see this as a win for decentralization. Some have noted that this may influence policy beyond the U.S. and could help shape mining rules in other jurisdictions, such as Canada.
Outlook
While the statement doesn't alter the environmental debates around PoW, it potentially lowers compliance risks and may encourage investment in mining infrastructure. At the end of the day, 'Crypto miners can keep on digging'.

Nov 12, 2026 Buying a Canadian money services business starts with identifying what the buyer will acquire: a legal entity, a registration history, contracts, records and possibly an active operation. The value of that package depends on whether it supports the services the new owner intends to provide. A FINTRAC registration entry is an important starting point. It does not establish the company’s financial condition, the quality of its compliance programme or the availability of banking relationships after an acquisition. A payment business may also need a separate assessment under the Retail Payment Activities Act, or RPAA. For investors evaluating a Canadian MSB company for sale, due diligence should connect registration status, actual activities, transaction structure and financial evidence before the parties agree a completion timetable. Verify the Canadian MSB registration and legal entity Begin with the target’s exact legal name, incorporation details, registration number and current status. Match the entity in the corporate documents to the entity in FINTRAC’s Money Services Business Registry. FINTRAC explicitly states that registration does not mean it endorses or licenses a business. It also states that it does not issue licences or certificates of registration. A sales presentation using the phrase “FINTRAC licence” should ...
November 12, 2026 | NCFA Fintech Market Insight | Digital Assets Blockchain And Tokenization, Capital Markets Infrastructure And Funding, Wealthtech Investing And Trading Strategy still runs a software business, but Bitcoin now dominates its assets and capital raising. MSCI no longer treats that balance as an index eligible operating company. November 11, 2026, MSCI confirmed Strategy’s removal from the MSCI USA and MSCI World indexes after the November 30 close under its new methodology for non operating companies. MSCI is one of the world’s largest index providers, and its benchmarks are followed by funds investing across global equity markets. Japan’s Metaplanet is also being removed from an MSCI index. MSCI has decided that Strategy no longer qualifies for its equity indexes because Bitcoin now dominates its assets and much of its capital raising. Strategy still sells software and reports operating revenue, but MSCI is drawing a line between a business that holds investment assets and one where those assets have become the main financial story. Why Is MSCI Removing Strategy From Its Indexes? MSCI first looked at a rule aimed specifically at digital asset treasury companies. It later dropped that proposal and change it's methodology to cover companies whose finances ...
Nov 12, 2026 Crypto market cap is calculated by multiplying an asset's reference price by its circulating supply. A token priced at $2 with 50 million units circulating has a market cap of $100 million. The calculation estimates the value of that supply at the reference price; it does not total the money investors deposited. To understand a change in the ranking, examine both inputs and the provider's definitions. A larger number can result from price changes, supply changes, or revised reporting. Establish what the two inputs represent The arithmetic is simple, but neither input is self-explanatory. “Price” may be a reference assembled from selected trading pairs and venues, rather than the last transaction on the exchange you use. A provider may exclude observations or convert quote currencies. Two services can publish different estimates because their source selection and methods differ. Circulating supply is an estimate of units treated as available in the market under a provider's rules. It may differ from the number minted, the total recorded by a contract, or the maximum permitted under a protocol's current design. Locked balances, treasury allocations, burns, and scheduled releases require interpretation. A transparent methodology matters because identical arithmetic can still use ...
November 11, 2026 | NCFA Fintech Market Insight | Artificial Intelligence And Data, Capital Markets Infrastructure And Funding, Risk Compliance And Regtech Financial firms are putting AI agents into production well before giving them broad financial authority. That creates time to set identity, permissions and transaction controls before autonomous execution becomes common. On November 11, 2026, Bank of England Financial Policy Committee external member Jonathan Hall used his final FPC speech to examine what happens when AI agents get more authority inside financial firms. A Bank of England and FCA survey of 196 firms found that 80% already deploy AI agents and another 14% plan to within 12 months. Only 2% reported agents with broad autonomy, and none of those were in trading and payments. Finance is adopting agents quickly, but firms are still keeping people and hard limits around the decisions that can change money, positions or customer outcomes. AI Agents Are In Finance But They Are Not Trading Alone The 2026 Bank of England and FCA survey separates four levels of authority: Decision support lets an agent recommend an action while a person decides and executes it. Constrained execution lets the agent act inside preset rules. Conditional autonomy ...
November 10, 2026 | NCFA Fintech Market Insight | Capital Markets Infrastructure And Funding, Entrepreneurs Startups Small Businesses, Equity Crowdfunding And Alternative Funding A small group of large rounds is carrying Canadian venture totals while deal count and growth stage financing remain well below recent norms. On November 10, 2026, the Canadian Venture Capital and Private Equity Association published its Q3 2026 venture capital report. Canadian companies raised $4.3 billion across 397 deals through September, only 1% less capital than a year earlier. But 23 rounds of $50 million or more represented just 6% of disclosed deals and absorbed 58% of all venture capital invested. Deal count has also fallen every year since 2021. The national total is holding up far better than the number of companies getting financed. Six Big Rounds Carried 59% Of Q3 Venture Capital Q3 produced $1.35 billion across 129 deals. Capital was 1% higher than Q2, but deal count fell 15%. Six rounds above $50 million accounted for $793 million, or 59% of the quarter’s capital. That's a decent quarter for the companies that closed those rounds, but a weak quarter for everyone else. Mega rounds above $50 million totalled $2.5 billion across 23 transactions ...
November 11, 2026 | NCFA Story Intelligence | Competition And Market Structure, Wealthtech Investing And Trading, Regulation And Policy Canada is cutting bank fees and switching barriers after years of weak competition, high concentration and poor productivity. On November 7, 2026, the federal government proposed something Canadian investors have complained about for years. Banks would no longer be allowed to charge most investment account transfer fees, which typically cost about $150 per account. Ottawa also wants clearer transfer information and tighter timelines for moving investments to another financial institution. The fee matters because leaving can already be slow and frustrating. Receiving firms often reimburse the outgoing charge to win the account. That means a fee collected by the institution losing the customer can become part of the acquisition cost for the institution trying to win that customer. Canada's six largest banks hold roughly 93% of banking assets. The Competition Bureau was warning about barriers facing fintech competitors in 2017. Ottawa began reviewing open banking in 2018. A federal advisory committee later recommended an operating system by January 2023 and warned that government should not delay. January 2023 came and went. Real Time Rail also slipped years beyond its first expected ...
November 10, 2026 | NCFA Fintech Market Insight | Digital Assets Blockchain And Tokenization, Capital Markets Infrastructure And Funding, Regulation And Policy Funds, Collateral And Settlement Lead Canada’s Near Term Tokenization Opportunity On November 10, 2026, the Canadian Securities Administrators published its Project Tokenization Phase 1 findings, setting out where Canadian market participants see the strongest commercial opportunities for tokenization and what regulators plan to test next. The report draws on 233 organizations, 21 bilateral meetings and 80 survey responses, along with workshops attended by 281 people in Calgary and 491 in Toronto. Participants put investment funds, private assets, collateral, treasury and settlement infrastructure ahead of public stocks as the strongest near term opportunities. The report also cuts through one of tokenization’s biggest sales pitches. Blockchain can change how an asset is recorded, transferred or settled, but it doesn't automatically create liquidity, investor demand, broader eligibility or stronger ownership rights. Those outcomes still depend on the product, market, legal structure and infrastructure around it. The CSA now plans to take specific projects into Phase 2 through a 120 day public call for proposals. Firms may be able to use existing regulatory processes, tailored regulatory treatment or bounded testing in a ...
Nov 11, 2026 A positive work environment is key for any team that wants to succeed. Team morale is crucial for productivity, motivation, and job satisfaction. Engaging in activities that lift spirits and strengthen connections can lead to great results. Creating a positive team environment requires creativity, engagement, and some fun. Each activity can strengthen connections, boost motivation, and improve workplace dynamics. When teams focus on strategies to boost morale, they work toward shared success. These activities can lead to lasting memories and help build a stronger team culture. Here are some fun strategies to help improve your team's morale and make the workplace livelier. Fun at the Arcade Visiting an arcade spot is a great way to enjoy time together and build teamwork. Imagine your team facing challenges with various games. Whether it's racing or playing team games, the arcade encourages friendly competition and bonding. These fun experiences can help reduce stress and improve relationships among coworkers. Arcades offer many options to suit diverse interests and skill levels. The lively atmosphere invites everyone to relax and take a break from their daily tasks. Shared laughter and enjoyment can lead to better communication and teamwork when you return to the ...
November 10, 2026 | Market Activity | Fundraising, Investing, Trading, Leadership, Competition, Human Capital, Health A Brokerage Race Beyond $0 Commissions On November 10, 2026, Webull Canada added Nasdaq Basic Canada, giving clients free real time Level 1 quote and trade data across Canadian listed equities. The feed provides best bid, best offer and last sale information for stocks listed on the TSX, TSX Venture, CSE and Cboe Canada. Nasdaq says its consolidated feed can reduce Level 1 market data costs by more than 60% compared with traditional Canadian data packages. Webull isn't first to give Canadian investors free real time information. The more interesting story is how quickly another paid feature is becoming part of the basic brokerage account. Wealthsimple helped normalize $0 trading in 2019, Questrade followed in 2025 and Webull dropped its own commissions in April 2026. With the headline trading fee largely gone, brokers now need other reasons for investors to move money and keep it on the platform.

November 10, 2026 | Market Activity | Artificial Intelligence And Data, Capital Markets Infrastructure And Funding A Toronto Fintech Riskfuel Analytics Brings AI Pricing Into BBVA’s Global Markets Workflow On November 10, 2026, BBVA deployed Riskfuel Analytics' neural pricing technology inside the pre-trade structuring workflow for autocallable products on its ePricer platform. Riskfuel is a Toronto fintech founded in 2019 that builds AI models for derivatives pricing. BBVA is a global bank with a large corporate and investment banking business. The deployment puts Canadian built AI directly into the calculations used to design complex structured products at a major global bank. Riskfuel's model is trained on BBVA's own pricing engine and uses more than 4,000 market and product inputs. The company says the surrogate was tested against more than 100,000 trades and can evaluate thousands of candidate structures in under a minute. BBVA had already added AI generated investment ideas to ePricer in September. Riskfuel goes further into the workflow by speeding up the numerical pricing work while BBVA's own model remains the reference. How Riskfuel Speeds Up BBVA's Autocallable Pricing Autocallables can depend on volatility, interest rates, dividends, maturity, coupon levels and several barrier conditions. Autocallables are structured investments ...

A Call to Action for Canada’s Tech Industry - Defending DEI
The Canadian tech industry is facing a critical moment in responding to the push back against diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives otherwise known as 'DEI'. Almost 1000 tech and innovation founders, executives, and investors have signed an open letter titled "Innovation Includes Everyone" in support of DEI, a initiative spearheaded by Laura Gabor (Ecologicca/What in the Tech), Avery Swartz (Camp Tech), Sarah Stockdale (Growclass), Arlene Dickinson (District Ventures Capital), and Amber Mac (AmberMac Media), among many others, to ensure Canada's tech ecosystem remains inclusive by working together to raise awareness, mobilize support, and advocate for stronger DEI commitments in the tech industry. They believe that diversity drives better ideas, stronger businesses, and a more inclusive economy.
See: Why is venture capital still ignoring women? The case for investing is clear.
There have been concerns raised recently about some of Canada’s largest tech companies quietly scaling back support for marginalized communities such as women, 2SLGBTQIA+ individuals, Black and Indigenous professionals, and newcomers. The open letter calls on the tech community and policymakers to reject efforts that undermine inclusion and to stand firm in support of equity. It emphasizes that Canada’s strength lies in its ability to embrace talent from all walks of life and that businesses should not prioritize profit over people.
Global Trend in Scaling Back DEI
Alarm bells are ringing due to a broader global shift towards policies that weaken protections for marginalized groups. The political climate, especially in the U.S. with the new Trump administration, has created uncertainty around corporate DEI initiatives, leading to some Canadian corporations with U.S. operations adjusting their commitments to avoid potential backlash. Corporations are also under economic pressure dealing with budge cuts. Some businesses are deprioritizing DEI programs citing economic survival. There are even social activist movements arguing against DEI initiatives that are causing some companies to reconsider their approach in the face of potential consumer pushback.
However, despite these rollbacks, public sentiment in Canada remains largely in favour of DEI programs. A 2020 Statistics Canada survey found that 92% of Canadians aged 15 and older agreed that ethnic or cultural diversity is a Canadian value. According to Benefits Canada, a 2023 World 50 Group survey revealed that 72% of business leaders increased their organization's investment in DEI over the past year.
The Best Talent Comes from Inclusive Hiring
A common argument against DEI is the idea of hiring the “best person for the job.” However, finding the best talent is impossible without an inclusive hiring approach. By ensuring diverse candidates are considered, businesses in fact expand their talent pool which leads to higher-performing teams. Multiple studies have found that diverse companies outperform their competitors in revenue, innovation, and employee engagement.
NCFA’s Commitment to Inclusion
The National Crowdfunding & Fintech Association of Canada (NCFA) has always championed inclusion and the underrepresented, advocating for opportunities that empower individuals and businesses alike. Through awareness-building, collaboration, and action, NCFA remains committed to closing gaps and fostering an equitable innovation ecosystem.

How Canadian Institutional Investors Voted on Climate 2024
Climate Report | Feb 27, 2025
Image: 2024 Canadian Climate Voting Record (Investors for Paris Compliance)
Institutional Investors in Canada Show Mixed Climate Commitments
The organization Investors for Paris Compliance recently published their 2024 Canadian Climate Voting Record (14 page PDF report), which tracks how Canadian institutional investors voted on climate-related shareholder proposals. While Canadian investor support for climate resolutions increased to nearly 65% in 2024, there's a global pullback on ESG reporting, making Canada's voting record stand out.
Global Pullback on ESG/Climate Reporting
Canadian investors have shown more support for climate resolutions but globally opinions on ESG investing are becoming more divided.
In the U.S., some states and asset managers are pulling back from ESG commitments due to political and regulatory pressure. According to Business Insider, BlackRock has softened its stance on ESG by removing diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) language from key documents, in response to growing criticism from certain investors, however they continue to emphasize sustainability.
In Europe, regulators are also adjusting their approach by proposing to ease sustainability reporting rules to reduce burdens on businesses and improve their global competitiveness. Despite this, many European institutional investors remain committed to net-zero goals.
What Types of Votes Are Taking Place?
The 2024 Canadian Climate Voting Record analyzed how institutional investors voted on climate-related shareholder proposals such as:
- Requiring companies to disclose how climate risks impact their business
- Encouraging companies to set clear, transparent, and scientifically based goals for reducing emissions
- Pushing for measurable actions to reduce carbon emissions and transition to cleaner energy
See: Planetary Health Check 2024 and Canadian Climate Tech
While only 4 climate resolutions were voted on at Canadian companies, Canadian investors voted on many resolutions at U.S. and global firms where they hold shares.
Who and How They Voted?
Some Canadian institutional investors are leading the charge, while others remain cautious.
Image: Summary of 2024 Climate Votes (Investors for Paris Compliance)
The top investors in support of climate shareholder proposals:
- All voted 100% in favour of climate resolutions: AGF Investments, NB Investments, Canada Post Pension Plan, IMCO, University Pension Plan, and NEI Investments
- Strong support: BCI (88.2%) and CDPQ (90%)
Many of Canada’s largest financial institutions had weaker records:
- Moderate support: TD Asset Management (70.6%), Ontario Teachers’ Pension Plan (75%), and CIBC (64.7%)
- Laggards: Manulife (41.2%), AIMCO (41.2%), and BMO GAM (47.1%)
- Least supportive of climate related resolutions: Canada Pension Plan (29.4%), RBC GAM (11.8%), and Scotia GAM (0%)
Select Takeaways
- While only 4 climate resolutions were voted on at Canadian companies, Canadian investors voted on many resolutions at global firms
- One issue that the report highlights is the lack of a unified policy on climate issues resulting in split votes among large asset managers like RBC GAM, Manulife, and Scotia GAM, where different portfolio managers voted inconsistently on the same resolutions
See: Canada’s Shift to Enhanced Climate Disclosures
- Canadian investors were more likely to support climate proposals at U.S. companies (65.8%) than at Canadian firms (55.5%), raising concerns about domestic engagement
Conclusion
With the 2025 AGM season approaching, will Canadian investors push for stronger climate commitments or continue their cautious approach?

1,000 Artists Protest AI Copyright Plans with Silent Album
AI | Feb 25, 2025

UK Musicians Release Silent Album to Protest AI Copyright Plans
More than 1,000 British musicians including Kate Bush, Annie Lennox, Cat Stevens, and Damon Albarn, have released Is This What We Want?, a silent album designed to protest the UK government’s proposed changes to artificial intelligence (AI) copyright laws that would allow AI companies to train their models on copyrighted material unless creators explicitly opt out.
The album is made up of recordings of silent studios and empty performance spaces, acting as a warning of what could happen if AI companies are allowed to use artists' work without limits.
Ed Newton-Rex, Composer and AI developer who organized the project:
“Almost silence to symbolize what we expect will happen if the government’s proposals go through.”
“The government’s proposal would hand the life’s work of the country’s musicians to AI companies, for free, letting those companies exploit musicians’ work to outcompete them. It is a plan that would not only be disastrous for musicians, but that is totally unnecessary. The U.K. can be leaders in AI without throwing our world-leading creative industries under the bus.”
A Fight Over Creative Control
In December 2024, the UK government proposed changing copyright laws so that AI companies can use content found online to train their systems without asking permission from the original creators. Under the proposed "opt-out" rule artists would have to take action to stop their work from being used, instead of requiring approval first.
While the UK government claims that the changes are aimed at boosting AI innovation while balancing artists' rights, critics of the plan including the likes of Elton John, Paul McCartney, and Annie Lennox say that it's like 'legalized theft' of their work.
People against this plan say it’s unfair because it undermines the UK's creative industries which contributed £7.6 billion to the economy in 2023:
See: The Necessity of Copyrighting Your Voice in 2024
- Artists have no easy way to see or control how AI is using their work
- Stopping AI from using their content is complicated for anyone, especially for independent creators
- AI companies could make money from copyrighted material without paying any royalties, hurting musicians, writers, and other artists financially
AI content generation is of course a major legal and ethical issue globally. In the U.S. artists and media organizations have launched lawsuits against AI firms for using copyrighted material without permission.
What Happens Next?
The UK government insists that they are trying to strike the balance between AI development and protecting creative rights. A spokesperson from the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology said, "No decisions have been taken," and that "no moves will be made until we are absolutely confident we have a practical plan that delivers each of our objectives."
See: The Frontline of AI’s Copyright Law Battle in 2024
Proceeds from Is This What We Want? will go to Help Musicians, a charity supporting UK artists. But the questions remains, will policymakers listen before the silence becomes real?

Canada’s AI Competition Report Faces Big Tech Challenges
AI | Jan 27, 2025

Canada’s AI and Competition Report Shows Big Tech, Big Challenges, and Big Questions
On January 27, 2025 the Competition Bureau of Canada published the results of its consultation on artificial intelligence (AI) and competition on March 20 based on inputs from 28 stakeholders from global tech firms to startups, academics and consumer advocacy groups, outlining key issues and opportunities of AI in Canada. The findings highlight a pressing need for Canada to balance innovation with fair competition.
Key Feedback from the Consultation
Stakeholders agree that AI is a game-changer in business, forging innovation in sectors like finance, healthcare, and transportation, and opening up endless possibilities but it also brings real challenges that Canada needs to address head on. AI relies on access to high quality data, compute power and specialized expertise making it challenging for smaller businesses to enter the space or compete.
Big Tech Dominance
Perhaps the biggest concern is the dominance of AI by a handful of large big tech companies like Google, Amazon and Microsoft who control most of the AI infrastructure like data centers, supercomputers and AI chips. This concentration of power isn't new to Canada who is fine with a handful of large banks controlling the majority of the country's financial assets. While Canada has many AI players such as Cohere (Canadian government invested $240 million), Element AI (sold to ServiceNow in U.S.), Waabi, Peak Power, Tenstorrent, Deep Genomics (see CVCA post on growth of Canadian AI by investment mapped), and is recognized for its strong AI research leaders, they do not necessarily operate at the same scale as the likes of big U.S. or Chinese tech companies like OpenAI or Google. As with all forms of high concentration of power, it creates significant barriers for innovative startups and smaller firms to access the resources to train and deploy competitive AI models, however this could change with DeepSeek's disruption. Will Canadian AI firms be able to compete effectively globally, if they are dwarfed in size by their competitor's resources.
See: CMA Flags Big Tech’s Tightening Hold on AI Markets
Large players could also control the AI supply chain by not allowing smaller competitors to access the infrastructure and tech needed to develop AI systems. Exclusive partnership agreements could also adversely impact competition. Could large players shut off access to critical AI inputs in a type of tariff trade war?
Last December 2024, the Canadian government announced the Canadian Sovereign AI Compute Strategy, a $2 billion investment over 5 years aimed at reducing the reliance on foreign tech giants and strengthen Canada's AI infrastructure but will it be enough when the U.S. has launched a $500 billion Stargate AI infrastructure project?
Other AI Risks Flagged
AI tools such as algorithmic pricing can unintentionally lead to anti competitive practices, when for example, a system automatically adjusts prices to align with competitors - price collusion that's hard to detect and regulate.
The report talks about accountability when AI systems become more autonomous and complex, who is responsible for the outcome of their decisions. While not a new point, the risk is a legal and ethical challenge where AI generates biased or harmful decisions. Think for example a loan approval of auto hiring process.
See: How AI Is Evolving Finance, Security, and Global Economies
Another major concern of course is the distribution of misinformation and rise of fake AI generated content like deepfakes, fake reviews etc that mislead consumers, damage trust, and give unscrupulous businesses an unfair/unethical business advantage.
Overview of Recommendations
The recommendations in the report are quite high level and scattered throughout the report but here they are in a simple format.
- Legislation should be tech neutral
- Conduct comprehensive market studies to better understand how AI will impact competition (i.e. AI's impact on payments, global regulatory standards)
- Promote fair competition and reduce barriers (ensure equitable access to data for startups and SMEs, invest in compute resources to reduce reliance on foreign tech, foster partnerships between large and small players to prevent incumbents from dominating, support SMEs with incentives like grants and tax credits)
- Ensure transparency and consumer protection (may need to strengthen existing laws)
See: OpenAI’s U.S. Economic Blueprint and Takeaways for Canada
- Develop ethical and inclusive AI practices (encourage open source tools, prioritize societal values, privacy, fairness, prevent bias and discrimination)
- Collaborate globally with regulators like the UK's CMA, U.S.'s FTC and EU to harmonize AI policies and standards
- Define AI consistently across policies
- Continue stakeholder engagement
The consultation makes one thing clear. AI offers enormous potential for Canada but its benefits won’t be evenly shared unless Canada takes deliberate and strategic action.
A Few Questions About Competition and the Future of Canada's AI Strategy
- What changes are needed to Canada’s Competition Act to address issues like AI price fixing and monopolies?
- How can the government create fair rules for data sharing without holding back private sector innovation?
- Can Canada lead globally by focusing on ethical or responsible AI to stay competitive?
- How can open source AI tools be improved and supported to make it easier for small businesses to compete?
- What steps can Canada take to protect its AI infrastructure from global political risks and supply chain problems?

- What new funding options beyond grants and tax credits could help startups afford access to computing power and data?
- What safeguards are needed to stop AI deepfake scams and harmful decisions made by biased algorithms?
- How can Canada hold companies accountable when their AI systems discriminate in areas like hiring or lending?
- How can Canada stop its top AI talent from leaving the country to work for global tech giants?
- What tools will Canada use to measure the success of its AI strategy in driving innovation, fairness, and trust?
Outlook
The Competition Bureau’s AI and competition consultation report stressed the importance for Canada to address big tech dominance, support Canadian innovation, and ensure fairness in the AI market. The Canadian Sovereign AI Compute Strategy is promising but must come with robust policies, global collaboration, and targeted investments to level the playing field.
