The key thing with L1 is that you need to have your own business in Canada and worked for it for 1 year (there has to be a relationship between Canadian and US Entity).

You cant just start a business with a US partner and move on L1.

Completely true - however, the relationship between the 2 companies can be via acquisition; at which point your time served for your Canadian company counts even though the acquisition may have only been a week prior to your application at the border.
