What is required for EK to do business abroad is negotiating partners that are sufficiently empowered and inherently self interested to be "wowed" by the "grandeur" of corruption , greed and easy money. Thankfully the Canadians aren`t allowing promises of gold to cloud out fair mindedness. I hope the best for EK , but until they come clean with their accounting practices , revenue streams , etc , they don`t deserve a seat at the negotiating table.
