编者按：在中国大量收购加拿大公司的浪潮中，一家曾在中国南海填海项目中起了举足轻重作用的中国国有企业准备出手购买加拿大的建筑巨头Aecon公司。这起收购案因其对加国国家安全造成的潜在威胁而引发加国国会广泛担忧。据《环球邮报》透露，该公司不仅敲响了中国将其触角伸入加国经济之警钟，且其不良劣迹记录更是令人大跌眼镜：它曾因诈骗行为而导致世界银行对其实行了项目封杀。

Editor’s Note: In the wake of a flood of China’s takeover deals to acquire Canadian companies, a Chinese state-owned firm which has helped advance Beijing assertive efforts in South China Sea, is buying Aecon, Canada’s construction giant. The deal has sparked a heated controversy in parliament, prompting widespread concerns of its potential threat over Canada’s national security. According to the Globe and Mail, apart from the alarming Chinese influence over the Canadian economy, the state-owned firm’s sordid record has raised even higher flags -- the company’s fraudulent practices in the past had resulted in a fraud ban by the World Bank.
