TORONTO, Nov 4 (Reuters) - Startup wireless carrier Globalive Communications says talks with new financial backers have stalled and its entire business is in danger following a ruling by Canadian regulators that found the company was controlled by foreigners.

"The whole business has been put at risk by this decision," Globalive chairman and founder Anthony Lacavera said in an interview. "We're not near resolving the financing issue and I don't see how we resolve it with this kind of pressure." (Reporting by Wojtek Dabrowski; editing by Rob Wilson)
