    Canada should be investing in healthcare and science, taking advantage of the current opportunity to poach world-class talent from the USA. And don’t vote Conservative because they’ll do the opposite.

      Get the government in the business of building homes. Stop relying on the private sector, this shit needs to be done ASAP. Then reach our to American talent!

      I can’t agree with your comment more. It’s time for Canada to take a stand and invite in all the smartest people from the US to help us bolster our economy and better the country.

        Same situation, here in Europe - the most beneficial situation would be to have a bigger partnership between the EU and Canada! Only then, we could face Trump, Putin, and other dictators.

        Trudeau did a great job of doing this the first time around. We got some big names in Chemistry back across the border. Thanks Trump lol

        Problem with that is we gotta offer a higher salary, which we can’t afford right now. Now with how medicare is being sabotaged by conservative provincial governments.

            Must be nice to be so privileged.
            Do dumb people deserve fascists?

                There are plenty of dumb people who don’t support fascists and plenty of smart people who do. Intelligence is completely unrelated to morality.

                My mistake, i thought this topic was about how emigrsting to Canada is realistically only possible for people who have skills in high demand and are referred to here as “smart”.

                Sorry for offending you, oh wise one. I’m just a mere moron, please forgive me.

                    It was sarcasm.
                    When you’re going to be a fucking asshole and immediately start insulting people you don’t get an apology—you get a “go fuck yourself”. Feel free to do so.

                    Feel free to have the last word before i block you.

      From what little I know, I believe that wait times for Canadian family physicians suck because they move to the US for better pay. So this is rebalancing the scales
