How does that actually work? Most large companies open foreign subsidiaries owned by the parent, for example “Microsoft” will own “Microsoft Canada” and employees working in Canada work for “Microsoft Canada” and NOT the main “Microsoft” company.

The R&D done by Canadians is booked against Microsoft Canada, so in my mind the Canadian laws around R&D would apply and not the USA laws of 15 years old amortization?

Am I missing something?
