\n<\/a>Canada on Friday allowed a Chinese state-run oil giant to move forward with $15 billion takeover of a domestic energy company, but the government indicated that such deals might not pass muster in the future\u2026.\u201cI\u2019m not sure you can do without state-owned enterprises,\u201d said Burkard Eberlein<\/strong>, a professor of public policy at York\u2019s Schulich School of Business, in The New York Times<\/em> Dec. 7. \u201cThey\u2019re saying, \u2018We are open for business, but we are very suspicious of that kind of investor.\u2019 \u201d Read full story<\/a>.<\/p>\n

And maybe the panhandler on the street will use your spare change to buy alcohol, cigarettes or drugs, he said, but thinking that the homeless need to have moral decisions made for them is infantilizing.

On being a dragon<\/a>
\n\u201cI was invited to be a dragon. Or, at least, to come up to the excellent Schulich School of Business<\/strong> at York University and be a Dragon\u2019s Den judge for the Innovation through Technology and Design class\u2019s final pitch session,\u201d wrote technologist Jay Goldman in his blog<\/a> Dec. 10. \u201cThe teams had been mandated to come up with a business pitch set sometime in the near future (i.e. not restricted by today\u2019s immediately available technology but within the realm of the possible).
