I'm not from the US and the discussion was mostly about regulations from the states but what I got from it was: - foreign skilled workforce is from their perspective still to hard to employ (and the Muslim Ban could be an good example for that) - think about the massive amount of money that Apple has offshore because it's to expensive to bring it back to the US! Put that investment into R&D and the effect would be tremendous. - I don't know how high the cost for using the public infrastructure is in the US but building it from ground up and managing it by yourself might be cheaper (I assume thats what the Toronto project is all about). - do some research on costs for positions like "Governmental Relations Manager". google made some bad experiences in China with that
