Summary: The article discusses the ongoing debate over immigration reform in the United States and highlights how global competitors like Canada are capitalizing on the U.S.’s indecision. Canada has implemented several reforms, including a Start-up Visa for immigrant entrepreneurs, lowered corporate tax rates, and increased R&D funding. They are actively promoting these changes, even targeting Silicon Valley with ads encouraging high-skilled workers to move to Canada. This strategy aims to attract talent to boost Canada’s innovation economy. Other countries like Australia, Great Britain, and Ireland are following suit with similar visa programs. The article warns that if the U.S. continues to restrict high-skill immigration, it risks losing talented workers to more welcoming nations.
