I love it when people point to skilled immigration as somehow being bad for wages.
Whats more likely to happen in that Canada may finally get a robust and dynamic technology labor market. With its sensible immigration laws, I know that a lot of my international peers are seriously considering moving to Canada. New immigrants will favor Canada over the immigrant hostile, gun-obsessed and anti-science US.

Yet it has not materialized. Often, for international workers, attorneys will file twice: one in Canada and one in the US. If the US one gets slapped with RFEs or isn't strong enough to qualify, the Canadian one is used and is systematically approved. > Whats more likely to happen in that Canada may finally get a robust and dynamic technology labor market. Negotiating easier free trade with the US as well as matching US law would be more productive, as it would dramatically expand the customer base. But what's crucially lacking is a strong investment culture of venture capitalism and risk taking.
