Germans can apply for the E-2 investor visa. It lets entrepreneurs live and work in the U.S. by buying a franchise or building a business. I'll be in Munich Nov 4 and Frankfurt Nov 5-7. If you're weighing the move, send me a DM.

71% of Waterloo's best engineers leave Canada (UWaterloo SE Class of 2022 graduate survey).
And nobody riots.
In any other country, a 71% talent export rate would be a national emergency. In Canada, it's Tuesday.
The problem isn't the people who leave. They're rational. The US pays 2-3x more, taxes less, and builds things that matter.
The problem is the people who stay and never ask why the system is designed to make leaving the rational choice.
Canada doesn't have a brain drain problem. It has a demand problem. Nobody demands better. Not from the universities. Not from the employers. Not from the government.
The best leave. The rest adjust. The cycle continues.
Every country gets the talent retention rate it deserves.

Which demographics of Canadians are leaving Canada?
>67% of the are 20-44 year olds.
>3x more likely to be in Sciences than avg population.
>31.1% have a masters degree.
>61.4% left to the US.
In other words, it's Canada's youngest, most talented and educated population.

"Okay, so I'm in an American hospital for the very first time. I'm Canadian, so when I tell you, I'm absolutely shocked. There is... There... I'm making a video.
There is nobody in this waiting room, not even one person. There is a duck pond here. They have a water fountain.
There are leather chairs. When you walk into the main lobby, it literally looks like a five-star hotel. It's insane.
It's crazy. I... There's a park here, like a playground for children. Like, when you walk into a Canadian hospital, the paint is literally peeling off the walls.
There are 4,000 people in the waiting room. Everybody is stressed out. Everybody's mad.
There's, like, glass everywhere. People in, like, medical gear. It feels like you're in an apocalypse movie.
This feels like, like, like a hotel. Like, literally like a hotel. I don't know.
I'm shocked. I'm shocked. You guys, I was in and out.
Like, I've been... I was in and out in 15 minutes. 15 minutes. What?"

That's really interesting. People prefer to move to, have and raise children in states that voted for Trump. Who would have thought?

โOut of Nowhereโ
Ontarioโs economy has been the worst performing in Canada/US since 2000.
Young Canadians havenโt received a raise in a generation. We covered it up with a housing bubble.
Ask anyone under 45. This wasnโt sudden.
Out of nowhere, Canada became poorer than Alabama. How is that possible? theglobeandmail.com/businessโฆ

Countries with higher GDP tend have lower rates of religiosity.
Examples include Denmark and Japan.
Countries w/lower GDP tend to be more religious.
Examples: Ethiopia and India.
Huge outlier: The United States.

The American mind wonโt comprehend the size of European houses and apartments. And they donโt have air conditioning either.
But never forget, quality of life is so much better in Europe.
