The $150k bit seems entirely unreasonable. Are they expecting immigrants to have funding before they launch their startup? Or are they only hoping to attract rich Indian and Chinese college students/grads riding on Daddy's money? Either approach seems naive if they truly want to build a vibrant startup culture in Canada.
- rabc 16y agoIt seems reasonable if they want to attract VC firms too (or already have them), so the VCs can find entrepreneurs overseas and send them to Canada.
- redthrowaway 16y agoThat seems like an edge case, and a strategy predicated upon the US remaining unfriendly to qualified immigrants.
