Canada Tech Firms That Benefitted Under Trump, Could Lose Out with Biden
HALIFAX, NOVA SCOTIA - As the United States loosens its immigration policies under President Joe Biden, leaders of Canada’s thriving tech sector may find they have to work a little harder to attract top international talent. “The effect of the Biden administration is not seen as yet,” says Toronto-based financial services executive Soumya Ghosh. Nevertheless, Canadian tech firms have been clear beneficiaries of America’s restrictive immigration policies under former President Donald Trump, finding themselves able to hire highly skilled workers from around the world who might otherwise have headed for jobs in the United States. The influx of skilled workers helped to make Toronto the fastest-growing center for technology jobs in North America in recent years, according to a January 2020 report by the U.S. business analysis firm CBRE, a global service and investment firm. Canada’s Pacific coast city of Vancouver also made the top five, along with San Francisco, New York and … [Read more...] about Canada Tech Firms That Benefitted Under Trump, Could Lose Out with Biden
Chaos, scandal and anger: Barcelona faces seminal presidential elections
(CNN) Few people will envy the man elected to be the new president of FC Barcelona . The upcoming election -- to be held on Sunday, just days after four senior officials were arrested -- is arguably the most important in the club's history and comes at a time of crisis that appears to be deepening by the day . Historic debts, reported by Spanish newspaper El Mundo to be more than one billion dollars, forced Barcelona into a fire sale of some of the most important figures in its playing squad during the summer transfer window. The rebuilding of its decimated squad, proven once again in the recent 4-1 hammering against Paris Saint-Germain to be well below the standard of its European rivals, is one of just many headaches facing the incoming president. Top of the list, however, is the future of club talisman Lionel Messi. The Argentine made public his desire to leave Barcelona last summer and it looks increasingly unlikely he will sign a new contract, meaning the … [Read more...] about Chaos, scandal and anger: Barcelona faces seminal presidential elections
Gov. Larry Hogan: Open the damn schools – Biden must send this message loud and clear
close Video 'A real tragedy' schools are closed in Montgomery County, Maryland: Parent Infectious disease scientist and mother of four Margery Smelkinson discusses the need for schools to reopen. Wear the damn masks. We need more damn vaccines . While leading my state through the COVID-19 crisis, I've sometimes had to utter more colorful language than I would typically be comfortable using in public. But I've felt it was necessary to get my point across. Leadership is about far more than the nuts and bolts of policy-making. It's also about communicating clearly, honestly, and with genuine empathy. Perhaps nowhere has this been more clear than the battle to get our schools opened safely. SEN. MARCO RUBIO: PUT STUDENTS FIRST AND OPEN SCHOOLS – HERE'S WHAT WE SHOULD DO IF TEACHER UNIONS REFUSE Last August, the state of Maryland authorized every county school district to open for in-person instruction after submitting detailed plans … [Read more...] about Gov.

FNC’s Carlson: Coronavirus Lockdowns Instituted by ‘Incompetent’ Officials Harming Children
Tuesday on FNC’s “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” host Tucker Carlson railed against government officials, including Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D-NY), for closing schools in the name of COVID-19 “mitigation.” Carlson explained how the lockdown was having a detrimental impact on children that was not being acknowledged. Transcript as follows: CARLSON: Things change fast, but it’s our job to keep track. It wasn’t so long ago that our taste-making class had decided that Andrew Cuomo of New York was the single greatest governor in American history. Reporters who covered him didn’t so much ask Cuomo questions, they swooned blushing in his presence. People who passed out Emmys, gave Andrew Cuomo an award just for holding press conferences. Over on CNN, Jeff Zucker handed the Governor a recurring spot on his little brother’s TV show. Yes, Andrew Cuomo is quite a bit taller than Chris Cuomo. For a moment there, Andrew Cuomo was the man they told us. He was a steely mixture of Abraham Lincoln … [Read more...] about FNC’s Carlson: Coronavirus Lockdowns Instituted by ‘Incompetent’ Officials Harming Children
