@cbcnews: Canada is attracting dozens of top academics from the United States with a promise to support their work, which has been deprioritized by the Trump administration. Andrew Chang breaks down how this sweep of American professors fits into Canada's trade war with the U.S. (Photo credits: The Canadian Press, Reuters, Adobe Stock and Getty Images) #Trump #Canada #Education #AboutThat #CBCNews
I don’t think the comment section realizes how rare these people are. Canada’s grabbing the modern day Einstein’s, Newton’s, Tesla’s, etc. This is significant.

I work in healthcare in BC. The amount of nurses and doctors coming from the states is unreal and we’re lucky to have them.

Higher education means government cannot just do whatever they want without being challenged. In the US the dumbification of its people started around 50 years ago

Losing liberals from liberal colleges. Oh what a loss. 🙄 They can have them. Let’s see if they love living under crippling taxes and expensive housing.

I met an ER doctor in our children’s hospital who moved his family here from Florida, he and his family are so grateful to be here and he was an excellent doctor and set the right path for our daughter’s urgent care.

As an outsider, I love Canada's responses - super impressed with how the nation and people stand up for themselves. I'd bet a big part of the world is cheering for you too.

Canada can’t figure out how to build a house for less than $1 million. Priorities so out of whack.
