They need to end immigration from non-European countries. Look at what is happening across Europe, in countries like Sweden. It's an insane experiment that should have never taken place.

India must find a way to stop India's brain from flowing down into the drain asap. One option may be to remove DTAA & impose income tax on foreign gross income of Indian citizens, like the US (US citizens/GC holders are taxed on their worldwide income, regardless of where they reside), & build a world-class work environment in India with that tax amount, so that high-skilled Indian talents can return back to India to start start-up to develop app like WhatsApp/FB/Google/Amazon/MS/Meta (like China) or find suitable job/Business.
Critiques India's policy framework and proposes specific tax/regulatory changes to retain talent, comparing India's approach to the US model.

Hypocrites are our Canadian politicians and Governments- Provincial and Federal, as they allow Canadian Companies to off shore numerous services and jobs - such as IT (software development) and get no benefit in return, except for big profits to CEOs and shareholders. So a huge number (over 900,000+ - see Kings College report) of young Canadian graduates are unemployed, yet the Federal Govt. keep fast tracking immigrants into Canada. Canada is failing as a country; our governments fail to keep their eyes and ears with Canadians.
Commenter critiques government policy on outsourcing and immigration, citing specific statistics (900,000+ unemployed graduates) and making economic arguments about job displacement.

As a Trump supporter and a Trudeau detractor, it is becoming more obvious to me that this threat of tariffs has become Trumps way of bullying Canadians into becoming the 51st state. I also believe at the same time, Trudeau has finally grown a set of balls because he is on his way out. That being said, my respect for “Donald” is falling off. I have not lost respect for the American people but I have for current American policies…
Nuanced critique of both Trump's tariff tactics and Trudeau's response, with personal political positioning and concern about sovereignty.

Donald will somehow blame our economic collapse on Biden, DEI, or someone else. It's clear that his policies have consequences and he doesn't believe they do or care if they do or both.
