If you add in DEI, you'll get amazing talent from around the world and lot of brilliant POC leave America for Canada as well.

If I were Canadian PM I would immediately:

1. Create a new $15B science fund

2. Offer any credentialed US scientist funding for lab startup and replacement of NIH grants if they move to Canada

3. Immediate permanent residency

4. Citizenship after 2 years

Overnight a science superpower

And they would be welcome with open arms.

DEI is the new CRT which was the new Affirmative Action. It is propaganda for people who want to blame their disappointment in their lives on something. trumpf and his ilk recognized that.

All those illegals trying to cross at the Southern border from Washington state to Maine

That’s what I think, all other countries should take advantage of the brain drain that will happen. Canada has the most to gain since it’s close, but I think European countries will as well.

But Trudeau only has rooms for his friends and doesn’t like science

amphora.bsky.social•21 days ago

Not with the way the Canadian economy is looking now. The brain drain will happen but it won't benefit North America.

That basically what we did before WWII we wouldn’t be able to build the bomb without European Jewish immigrants

If Canada bordered the Caribbean or the Gulf of MEXICO, I'd consider migrating. But brrrr, its cold up there

In winter, it's common for Canadians to take a winter vacation somewhere warm, though Florida is definitely losing its appeal. Also, summers can be very hot.

I would have to see the drain on the U.S. but Canada should institute this immediately

Maybe we can get some of those Canadian Doctors to return HOME.

robmcgaff.bsky.social•21 days ago

Ph.D. Chemist with thirty years experience here. I’d take that offer in a second.

placelifecolour.bsky.social•21 days ago

I have a British child with a science PhD. Will you take them? They'd move to Europe but some nitwits voted us out of there

Whatever happened with the Canadian scientists shot out of the sky by Iran during pandemic and everyone just pretended like it never happened.

Like what were they researching, because someone didn’t want that info out.

oldrocklady.bsky.social•22 days ago

That’s actually a great idea
And there needs to be a general boycott

Please. We hate it here omgggg

The Foreign Skilled Workers Program is what they should look into immigrate to Canada. That will get them here faster.

kidmadrid222.bsky.social•21 days ago

So smart.

fiore-blu.bsky.social•21 days ago

A lot of countries should do this for a variety of different fields.

marmaladekid.bsky.social•21 days ago

Even without such elaborate programs people are going to naturally migrate to where they are wanted, and as of jan20th if your in any scientific field that's not the US.

And some amazing food!

We would also accept anyone looking for a better life here in Aotearoa New Zealand, but we're about a year ahead of America with a right-wing government gutting the public sector and other anti-progressive nonsense.

But we have an election next year, so there's hope on the horizon.

blair4347.bsky.social•21 days ago

While in 🇨🇦, we might be on the verge of electing a right-wing, Maple MAGA PM. My one hope is that the ugliness displayed by the Trump administration might give voters here pause, in spite of their dislike of the current Liberal government, especially with a new Lib leader.

kamibird.bsky.social•21 days ago

🤞my fingers are crossed for this as well

chrisnielsen.bsky.social•21 days ago

So many people still support them still so I wouldn’t count on them being voted out.

cybogoblin.bsky.social•21 days ago

It'll be a close run thing and not many faces may change, but we have to try.
