Very true.  It has always astounded me how the governing elites in Canada miss the point on foreign ownership.  The value is in in the IP.  If that is foreign owned, that's where the wealth is going.  Canadians work for their foreign masters and get paid an hourly wage.  But the real money from their efforts is made by the owners who license the IP.  Having completely missed that point, we are only left to tax the bejesus out of anybody left in this country who manages to poke their head above the crowd.
