DO a FULL NATIONAL SECURITY REVIEW, as recommended by CSIS and other members of government. There is NO rush. If both China and the USA are interested in Norsat, then the Canadian government OUGHT to be interested.  I must say it seems absurd for any government to use a commercial satellite service for its communications and military operations. Maybe, NATO, the US Marine Corps and the US Department of Defence, including the Pentagon, thought it was conducting business with a reliable ally ... but this is a commercial venture where the only thing that matters is money. Let's not forget the Taiwanese army is also a Norsat client, and Taiwan has a very tense relations with China. Why make things worse? What's the rush? I wish the Liberals would stop pretending China would allow any foreign nation to buy a similar venture, but China's Central Authority rules supreme within China. There is no true reciprocity, openness nor transparency where China is concerned.
