That would not be a good thing to do. The issue is worthy of study. I'm a proud Canadian, as we all are, and we want the Canadian company to be the global leader. We want to know why Canadian companies are being bought up by American or European companies.
We need to better understand what it is about Canadian managers and financial markets, the Canadian economy, that's not allowing the Canadian company to take Alcan to the next level. Why does it have to bought out?
Putting a moratorium on foreign takeovers would send completely the wrong message. One thing about these types of policies that restrict foreign investment is that they're very long-lived. When we had the national energy program in FIRA back in the seventies, these effects were very long-lived; they have a lot of memory. So it would be wrong to restrict foreign takeovers.
