Thank you for the question.
Firstly, on the treatment of intellectual property and data, as I said, there are already certain elements, including guidelines for the consideration of national security aspects. There is a large section on intellectual property and the ability of the Investment Canada Act to cover these aspects.
Secondly, the requirement to consider the list of sensitive technologies and national security aspects is one of the reasons why it is important to give the minister full discretion to consider all aspects of a situation. As Mr. Balsillie pointed out, data, intellectual property and national security considerations need to be intertwined and fit with the investment.
It would also be important for the government to keep an up-to-date list of sensitive technologies, as well as guidelines on intellectual property in relation to national security.
