    It’s not true that Canada is not attracting high skilled immigrants. The international student boom is that or at least it can be, I’d Canadian universities are doing their job. Source: I was one.

    The problem is that we are shit at putting foreign trained highly skilled people to work. We have an archaic system for recognizing credentials in all sorts of vocations. Indian doctors and Syrian engineers driving Ubers and all that.

    Natural gas cannot be a sound long term investment for Canada, given the climate crisis. We have vast renewable resources, we should be becoming the renewable technologies capital of the world.
