This is a very fair question. The Cons screw Canada over quite regularly. Is there a way we can safe guard anything put into place.

My only idea would be a partnership with a province which would give the other veto power over any potential sale, along with a legal commitment that Canada would retain access to all IP in case of a sale.

You would need a government in opposition provincially that was politically adverse to the federal government. If you end up with 2 conservative governments it's likely they wouldn't oppose one another ideologically.

Yeah, that’s the rub.

The IP clause to allow Canada to rebuild it in case of that happening might poison any potential sale, and might discourage a province from wanting to sell if Canada would then rebuild in a new province?

But I’m just spitballing and have no idea if it even makes sense
