> better VC funding, better labor pool

Did these 2 go away?

And isnt cost of living in Vancouver and Toronto both quite high? And are either as appealing a place to live as big cities in the US?



For VC funded startups, I would imagine sec 174 is less bad. For bootstrapping, I just can't imagine how to make it work. A Canadian company can hire globally without the craziness of this amortization too.

Because the issue dealing with the foreign country not your own country, right? That’s why so many US companies go the contract route with international talent right?
