Questions for discussion:

  • Strategically, is this a good decision for growth?
  • What are the logistical and managerial implications for the firm, with respect to entry into Canada?
  • Should the firm be looking to hire senior management people in Toronto or just lower level operations personnel? Explain your thinking.
