I was. I was even going to potentially bring a substantial commercial enterprise with me.
However, Canada, the place of my birth, appears to be becoming increasingly unwelcoming. I have never seen anything quite like it. Canada was never fantastic in R and D. However, things have gone from bad to worse, or at least that is my impression.

And the government and citizens do not seem particularly concerned, from what I can tell. They might even be gleeful at the prospects of losing their hard-won status as a first world country that many admired and respected. They are getting poorer and more backwards. Their reputation is suffering from all the shenanigans that are going on. They always had a terrible brain drain, but the current situation definitely is not helping.
It is sort of shameful, really.
And so, until things turn around, I will NOT be coming back to Canada to live or invest.
My parents, who have now passed away, would have been horrified. How did things get so bad, so quickly? It does not HAVE to be the way it is currently. Wow.
Many Canadians do seem to care. The majority is appalled by the performance of PM Trudeau and his government. A lot of Canadians are really angry. Whether and to what extent this will lead to changes that will turn things around, remains to be seen. Meanwhile, it is wise for you to stay put.
When I ask my friends back in Canada, they seem to suggest that Canadians are too complacent and too lazy to do anything at all. They think that Canadians will just let the authorities run roughshod over them and make their lives a living hell.
I know Canadians are not particularly combative, and are conflict avoidant. I was that way when I moved to the US, and I have become far more obnoxious and offensive just to survive in this much rougher environment down here. It was a conscious decision on my part, actually.
The one thing I am confident of is that the Yanks, as rude and crude as they often are, are prepared to fight if they are pushed far enough. In surveys for years, more than half of all Americans expect another civil war to break out at some point. And I think the tensions are pretty high at the moment. I am not sure the Aussies are willing to fight to defend their way of life, and I am even less sure that the Canucks are willing to do so.
Even though the Yanks are prepared to fight against this woke ideology, I am not completely convinced that they will rise to the occasion in enough time to save themselves, their country and the rest of Western Civilization. That remains to be seen, unfortunately.
