Instead of VCCI, here's what would do to bolster startups in Canada:
- Start YC style accelerators (with actual dollars) at every technical university starting with Waterloo. Put competent people in charge like @jrodgers
- Do the same at our three AI labs, similar to what Stephane Marceau is doing at Mila
- Copy paste QSBS from the US
What else?
Getting ready for a live @SaaSpasse podcast with the one and only @frankhellend

I’m hosting four Canadian defence founders and CEOs with @nectarios in Montréal.

@gregisenberg@SpencerFernando I don't pretend we are leaders / there was a window but the ship has sailed unfortunately for us.
One bright spot though is that Canada is still producing world class AI scientists + research. 3 of the top 7 AI labs (in universities) are Canadian.
