@mayintoronto JFC. So much terrible about this story. At a macro level, Canada is in an unusual situation of being able to attract really smart people who might otherwise go to (or stay in) the US. Yet we manage to screw up the whole "attractive place to work" thing by being (at best) inept and bureaucratic. We could start to reverse 50 years of brain drain and seed the next generation of innovation, but we won't because we rely on stochastic parrots to make decisions about immigration. SMH.
