   his post only emphasizes on one point: CHEAPER. He himself acknowledges there are more talented and experienced people in Canada but he won't hire them.

   Well, I don't know if those 3 points made are to be taken seriously. I despise laziness and I don't think you can justify it in any form.

   You make some great points here that I totally agree with.

   @Zach "Hire People who Frustrate Easily?" That seems counter intuitive to me, what does it mean with example?

   who is to say for sure, his past experiences does not prove that, it proves the contrary.

   This strategy has been talked about for, ummm, 20 years now? - Nailed it :)

   It also doesn't help Canada since people who live and support the economy by paying taxes in Canada (income, sales, property etc) don't get a paycheck.

   Argentine? I think you did not get the point. I meant he most likely does not respect quality talented programmers in Canada and think paying 75K for his 1st engineer is overpriced, he is viewing the problem from only one lens: money.

   True but it's a pretty good indicator. I'll put my money on it.

    I mean no disrespect, but tell me that when you're employer sends your job abroad and all the companies that you apply to only outsource their positions or pay you below market salary how you would feel?

    That is why while making important business decisions it is so critical to think 10-20 years out if not 40-50 even if that makes making the tough choices.

    Yup, basically the author is cheap and does not respect quality talent and does not believe in fair compensation. It's clear when he says 'it was a tough pill to swallow' which also means highly egoist. I'd recommend staying away from his c

    It is 100% offshoring, people from his local community do not get jobs, it does not help Canada and in a way insulting for Canadians. I'm surprised to see this article making 1st page :(

    No Costco offers something similar to 'instant shipping', which means you come, you shop, you leave :)

    Recruiters trying to hide behind the name 'Agents'. They don't add any value instead headache for developers. I would recommend staying away as far as possible from these so called 'agents' who just want your 15%.

    Next year it could be worse, like the 1st day the cap might be reached. It only shows how important and urgent is to fix the legal immigration system in this country.
