Mr. Speaker, my colleague may be happily surprised to hear Zellers is returning in a few locations. That may be some welcome news. In any event, the world is different today. Geopolitics changes over time and regimes change. That is why we need principles under which to look at all transactions. I agree about entities that are controlled by or influenced by a foreign power, for example, whether it is hostile or not. A hostile power today might not be a hostile power tomorrow, and one that is not today could be one tomorrow. Any time there is a lack of governance and transparency, the government should be on high alert and scrutinizing the transaction to the absolute highest degree.
