Advocates have said the office needed the ability to compel documents and testimony from companies, for example.\n\n> On Thursday, Carney defended eliminating the office by pointing out that only one of the watchdog’s investigations had led to recommendations being made to a company.\n\n> The documents tabled in the House of Commons on Wednesday say that, overall, the CORE had only launched five investigations.",
