briefly: cap gains reductions. at will employment. competitive top line corporate rates that attract HQ's and IP the way Ireland did. reduce the public sector talent tarpit, tariff goods from countries that use slave labor. abolish the dairy, wheat, and syrup boards and other agriculture cartels. enforce money laundering laws against retail businesses to normalize commercial rents. reduce immigration to levels where people can integrate and actually want to make things for each other and to take the pressure off home prices. pro natal policies that create more young people with a stake in their country. make math education a national project. to name a few.

if you talk to anyone in canada who is from here and doesn't work in the public sector, the conversation quickly turns to whether they're planning to leave and how far along they are. the way it's going, they're going to have to bar the exits.

All Canadian jurisdictions, as far as I am aware, are at-will employment. Unionized environments are an exception because they have layoff procedures in their collective agreements, but that's the same in the US.

It sounds like that is just your bubble. I live in Vancouver, BC, and am a Canadian citizen. Yes, lots of people agree that things could be (and should be!) better - but I don't know many folks that are actively planning to leave.

Same for me and most people I work with in Vancouver as well.

These days I'm finding people are very much against relocating to the USA more than 4-5 years ago.

we have at will employment here in Canada, do you know much about Canada? Most of the things you have mentioned are not real issues here.
