Creso Sá: Canada must be more audacious with efforts to attract global talent

Pretty boilerplate and skimpy on the how:

….The  urgent debate on immigration needs to place greater emphasis on the tools meant to make Canada a prime destination for global talent.

More rigorous program reviews tied to a fundamental commitment to learning and adapting can help overcome the bureaucratic inertia that allows ineffective initiatives to continue.

Now more than ever, it is essential that Canada strive to attract the most innovative and capable scientific and entrepreneurial minds on the planet.

Experimenting with policy approaches may at times produce disappointing or underwhelming results. But that is less important than trying and learning from putting new ideas into practice so Canada doesn’t fall even further behind in a global race that will shape the future of the country.
