@KirkLubimov To be fair, our birth rate is like 1.40 she immigration is not only important, but imperative. I think the deeper issue is quality of immigrants which this may be addressing.
@MarkJCarney Good luck building โthe strongest economyโ while pursuing an agenda of regulations and taxes. Why would a multinational choose Canada over US rn, all else being equal? Only answer is the Canadian peso which presents its own problems.
@sweatystartup@climatepaige Haha get a fucking life. These dogs arenโt the same. The fact you donโt understand the temperament and character of a Labrador is a massive ๐ฉ and very unsurprising.
@Tablesalt13 We cap their tuition and international students are their only way to stay above water. What money do you suggest they use to build student housing?
@TDotResident Youโre misinformed. Larry will take I come through a corporatation and invest in assets through that corporation. If he sells those assets to fund his retirement, or his daughterโs wedding, every cent of profit will be taxed at 67% inclusion rate.
@maxfawcett@gcosteloe Every single successful lawyer, accountant, doctor, dentist, tradesman, real estate professional, architect etc etc will be meaningfully impacted by this change. It hurts every successful entrepreneur in the country - while productivity suffers.
