It was never about them being talented. They’re cheap labor.

Who in Canada is hoping for this? We don’t need your „talent“

You better start fixing your housing crisis Canada

While an optimistic and even forward-looking view, building an academic/r&d ecosystem is vital to not only attract but also thrive and reap the benefits of the influx of talent and smarts. And you also have to prepare for a small exodus when MAGA is gone. It’s an odd balancing between short-med-long term plans to maximize utility on the whole.

Of course it will. Until he’s dead and common sense returns, here we are. 🤷🏿♀️

Canada national unemployment rate is sitting above 7%.
LMIA scam is being exposed all over the place.

I could picture him slapping some kind of retaliation on Canada, with accusations about stealing his good employees. He made that accusation against Epstein “stealing” Mar a Lago workers.

Hope isn’t a strategy. In order to attract talent, Canadian STEM workers need to be paid more, which means overall there has to be more investors willing to take bets on entrepreneurs. Having worked with startups in Canada, it’s abundantly clear that the VCs and angel investors here only want to bet on sure things. Problem is, that leaves no room for experimentation, only iteration.

Yay, even lower wages and higher rent!

Do “we?”
We already have a population problem and massive unemployment. I’m not sure “we” are clamouring at the idea of funneling even more people into the country.

Our company talked yesterday about opening an Australian office if the $100,000 happens. They already have some Australian employees so we hope that makes it easier.
I volunteered to move! (I wouldn’t be the one who would move but wish I could)

Why not make Canada a more attractive place without needing the US to make itself 100k less attractive! Also which specific jobs is Canada unable to fill with current citizens and PRs and also unable to attract talent for?
downtofinance on
Ah yes, more wage suppression for Canadians incoming.

Also, established US scientists and researchers are looking to leave. The key for both is :
1) pay more
2) better grant funding
3) simpler process

No, we have enough local tech talent looking for work now!

Nope. It won’t.
I am a Canadian and former H1-B holder. Canada does *not* have an economy that supports the well-educated.

North where we don’t even have affordable housing for our citizens and have overcrowded hospitals. Yep

Canada needs more jobs instead of more talents

As a Canadian: NO.

we don’t need them to come north, we need to keep the ones we have

As a Canadian, I sure don’t, not sure who they polled

I hope some of the many „remote, US only“ job posts I see for my profession start to consider „remote, Canada“ as an option.🤞

Yes the Government would love more low wage foreigners to add to the slave class in Canada, the people do not. Unemployment is 7.1%, youth unemployment is 14.5% and our politicians still froth at the mouth to exploit foreigners to further drive down wages and appease the billionaire corporations. Don’t come here, its a trap.

Canada with high unemployment and housing shortage wants more „““talent“““?!?
bubbasass on
The problem is the he Canadian tech market is already shit. Experienced senior devs are struggling to find work. Junior devs might as well change careers honestly. Having more tech workers flood the market here will only further suppress the Canadian tech pay which is already low. What we need is companies investing into Canada, growing here, hiring here.

We have talent here already… WE HAVE TALENT HERE.
