Most of the benefits of foreign investment are economic in nature. ... There is no strong "noneconomic" or social argument for foreign ownership or control as an ethical end in itself. ... the economic argument for continuing to permit, or encourage, foreign ownership is that infusions of capital from abroad raise the productivity of Canadian labor. In this way they raise GNP, and make it possible for the population to grow without diminishing returns. 3, record 1, English, - foreign%20ownership
