      This was one of the key points in the video. Their source is a TD Economics report, which in turn references a report from The Institute for Canadian Citizensihp:

      The Institute for Canadian Citizenship’s Leaky Bucket 2025 report shows that onward migration is highest among immigrants with doctoral degrees, strong earnings potential, and experience in management, ICT, engineering, and science based occupations. Within five years of entering Canada, highly educated immigrants are more than twice as likely to leave as lower skilled immigrants.

        But… That’s fine? We would expect them to? They came here for education. That’s not skilled immigrants leaving, it’s customers going home with what they paid for

          The skilled people are Citizens and PRs going to work in the US because the same jobs in Canada pay half as much with much higher taxes.

            That’s over now. Who wants to get a pricy Canadian degree just to go get rounded-up in America and maybe killed in the gulags?

      You mean other than the ones you were already giving you sea lion? LOL

      Either make a counter argument or admit that I’m right even if you don’t like it. This kind of nonsense just makes you look bad
