What Hacker News says?
- Canada is already pursuing non-American engineers, even advertising along the 101 [1], and it's working [2]. - Canada does offer some tax breaks [3] and grants to startups, but more is also welcome. - Agreed that there should be a bigger focus on startups. I wonder if having provinces create VC funds (like Investissment Quebec [4]) tailored specifically to startups would help here. [1] http://mgalligan.com/post/52…
