What is the geographic dimension of the relevant market for a merger?

Canada (Federal), Canada

The following excerpt is from Canada (Director of Investigation and Research) v. Hillsdown Holdings Ltd., 1992 CanLII 2092 (CT):

The United States jurisprudence indicates that the definition of the geographic dimension of the relevant market has been determined by reference to tests such as: the area where "the effect of the merger on competition will be direct and immediate" or "the area in which the acquired firm is an actual direct competitor". (United States v. Marine Bancorporation, 418 U.S. 602, at 619, 622 (1973)).
