Immigration.ca's Podcast

Technology companies have placed themselves at the forefront of the battle against Donald Trump's crackdown on U.S. immigration. Canada looks set to be the chief beneficiary – with the possibility of major firms like Amazon and Google moving large parts of their operations here as immigration worries continue south of the border. And Canada's homegrown technology industry – including household names like Shopify and Hootsuite – are also set to benefit from a swathe of the best and brightest talent looking to move from the U.S., or switching their focus away from America because of Trump's controversial policies. Already, Amazon is doing what it can to help the legal battle against the Trump administration, while Google took the step of recalling its staff from all over the world in the wake of the immigration crackdown.
