Canada seize opportunity ! - ketchim - 02-08-2017
Canada's tech scene is hopeful the executive order will help bring much needed
talent to the sector north of the border.
Canadian firms see an opportunity to lure talent even as they struggle with the
impact of the ban on their business, and are seeking a fast-track visa to help them
bring top candidates to cities like Toronto, Vancouver and Montreal.

The US policy has had repercussions for the global tech industry.
A group of 97 US tech firms have filed a legal document stating that President Trump
immigration ban affects their operations and "inflicts significant harm" on business.
The amicus brief
which allows parties not directly involved in a case to give their view,
includes Silicon Valley giants like Apple, Facebook and Microsoft.

Not only the talents will leave, the US companies will now further expand their offshore campuses in order to retain talents. Watch out for US companies expanding in Canada.
