Instead they said, damn we really want young entrepreneurs to succeed and start a change. We don't have much VC money, but let's freaking execute by introducing a startup visa and that way state an example for the U.S. to follow.
- gyardley 13y agoThe government of Canada isn't doing this to set an example for the United States to follow. They're doing this because they want to grow the Canadian economy. In fact, they'd be quite happy if the United States doesn't follow their example, because that will help Canada compete. See, for instance, this billboard in Silicon Valley: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/department/media/photos/2013/2013-05-17/photo.asp?p=0 http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/department/media/photos/2013/20...
- orbitur 13y agoThe U.S. doesn't need any examples to follow since the machine seems to be running quite well. If anything Canada needs to set itself apart because we're losing too many entrepreneurs to the pretty neighbour below us.
