Abstract

The author reflects on the openness of Canada to foreign investors. He relates to the announcement of the Canadian government to refuse foreign takeover of a Canadian company for the first time. This announcement is in response of the thousands foreign acquisitions being approved since 1985 then Prime Minister Brian Mulroney. However, the author argues that the Competition Policy Review Panel of the Stephen Harper's administration makes it easier for the Canadian companies to be taken over.
