The top talented from Canada have given up trying to build their companies in Canada due to regulations and crushing taxes. The best Canadians are launching their businesses mostly in the USA.
- My health is the only thing holding me back from opening a business in the US. I’ve lost all hope for Canada. Seems like decisions have been made about our future that we are not privy to. My gut tells me these decisions will not benefit the average Canadian. – Nana C
Canada’s Talent Story Is Stronger Than the “Brain Drain” Narrative
An audit of Charles Lammam’s claims, the missing ledger behind them, and what the Canada–U.S. record actually shows
Canada’s talent story is stronger than the current brain drain narrative allows.¹
Charles Lammam’s recent Hub piece argues that Canada is exporting its highest earners to the United States and losing the very people it most needs. The concern is real. The conclusion is darker than the record can carry.¹ ²
The United States is the sun in the global economic system. Talent, money, and growth firms revolve around it from many countries. Canada sits in that system too. The real question is this: how strong is Canada’s own gravity? What does it attract, keep, and build, and what might it keep for longer?⁴
Canada is seeing real outward movement, and some of it is selective. Still, the article leans on an inference as though it were a head count. It leans on an education proxy as though it were citizenship. It leans on outward movement as though immigration, return migration, second-step migration, and the much narrower bilateral permanent-resident exchange with the United States can be set aside.² ³ ⁴
This paper makes five points.
-
Lammam starts from a real concern. His conclusion is much darker and broader than the fact based record can carry.
-
Canada is a magnet for talent. That is a strength, not a weakness.
-
Emigration is only part of the story. Canada’s exchange with the United States is less one-way than the darker reading suggests.
-
The harder job comes later. Canada is stronger at attraction than at retention, utilization, and keeping firms once deeper U.S. capital comes into view.
-
A PauliChecks redaction audit removes what is overstated, restores what is omitted, and asks what conclusion the fuller record can actually support.
