Reminder that the rules for lemmy.ca also apply here. See the sidebar on the homepage:
I don't think you have to be extreme right wing to have legitimate concerns for the future of Canada. The country is literally on fire. Houses are over $1 million and health care is barely functioning.
I'd hate to see the other guys I guess.
See, that's the thing. The 10 factors in the ranking include 1) Entrepreneurship, 2) "Open for Business", 3) "Movers", 4) Power, and 5) "Agility", or a place that is 'efficient in its actions, adopt and accept modern solutions'
So, like, half the factors are "how badly do you screw the environment and average non-capital-class citizen"
And in case you think I might be wrong about what they mean by "Movers", the top 5 are the UAE, Qatar, Egypt, Saudia Arabia, and India.
Of COURSE our country, which is composed a bunch of oil, gas, and mining corps in a trenchcoat shaking hands with a couple of oligipolistic banks and telecoms will score well.
Look at the source: its a law firm who brings immigrants over to Canada. Of course they're going to pump our tires. It helps them with business.
This comment needs to be higher up.
This kind of article isn't news, it's marketing.
