And then they'll probably just have Air Canada buy WestJet so they can deliver better value or some shit. That seems to be the way competition goes now.

Those terms also highlight the relative duopoly of Air Canada and WestJet

Doubt it, if anything I feel they may recommend to split up AC or nationalize it.

I was being a bit facetious in the wake of Rogers being allowed to buy Shaw.

Of course they should be breaking up the large companies when there's not much competition, but I doubt they'll do much of anything.

The competition bureau acts in good faith. They very much opposed the Rogers / Shaw merger. The problem is they don't have any actual power beyond making recommendations.
