This sale must be authorized by the minister of Industry. Do you believe that he has the information required under the Investment Canada Act or should this decision rather be made by the minister of Foreign Affairs who is responsible for granting the operating license to the satellite? Would the legislation governing remote-sensing space systems provide him with better tools to prevent this sale? Does one of these departments have precedence over the other?
