What is the predominant purpose of a deposition for the Commissioner of Competition?

Ontario, Canada


The following excerpt is from Neuwirth v. DaCosta et al., 2014 ONSC 527 (CanLII):

Applying the predominant purpose test, it is clear that the predominant purpose of the proposed deposition is to obtain evidence in a civil proceeding, not to incriminate the Respondents: Treat America v. Leonidas, para. 45. The Respondents distinguish Treat America v. Leonidas, a case that is very similar to this one, on the basis that the Commissioner of Competition was a party and addressed the issues raised in the particular circumstances of that case.
