We're either open to outsider money or we're not. We can't be picking and choosing deals that are only 100% good for us because suddenly we're going to find that there's a lot less deals to be made.
Instead of getting our panties in a bunch about an outside firm buying a Canadian one, we should be asking why our business community isn't being more aggressive buying other countries' firms when our dollar is high and many assets are still distressed.
