Joel Rose / NPR : Tweets: @npr , @nandinigupta201 , @johnjhorton , @usf_economics , @jay_hernandez , and @nprjoel Tweets: @npr : The tech industry across Canada is booming. And one of the biggest reasons is U.S. immigration policy. The Trump administration has made it harder for high-skilled workers to get visas. Canada, meanwhile, has been making it easier. https://www.npr.org/... Nandini Gupta / @nandinigupta201 : If capital is mobile and labor is not - it will follow labor. Google etc have all opened subsidiaries in Canada because of h1b visa denials in the US. https://twitter.com/... John Horton / @johnjhorton : Congratulations to my Canadian friends, but what an unforced error for the US... https://twitter.com/... @usf_economics : Tech booming in Canada because global talent finds it easier to go there than come here. https://twitter.com/... Jay Hernandez / @jay_hernandez : Let us wallow and writhe in the slippery afterbirth of a Trump presidency. #maga https://twitter.com/... Joel Rose / @nprjoel : Two years ago, we reported that U.S. immigration policy might drive high-skilled workers from around the world to Canada.
