For Bay area VCs and tech startups which are looking for a highly liveable city a bit closer than Australia, Vancouver ranked a close third (after Melbourne and Vienna) in the Economist's ratings, and is just a 2h15m flight away from San Francisco.
If anyone is interested in relocating, I'd be happy to help in any way I can (realizing of course that I'm not an immigration lawyer).
- ahh 10y agoI find it interesting that most of the people I see on e.g. Facebook talking about moving to Canada are, in fact, not eligible to do so. (At least without a job offer in hand from a Canadian company to sponsor you.) (Canada's a lovely country, I wonder if their immigration policies help keep it that way?)
- cperciva 10y agoMany people aren't eligible to immigrate to Canada permanently right now, but there's nothing to say that you can't enter Canada temporarily now and then permanently later. If you pack your bags, drive up to the border, and say "after the election I'm not sure I want to live in the USA so I'd like to spend a few months exploring Canada to see if it's somewhere I could move to some day", I'm sure you'll be welcomed with open arms.
