- 35% ✌🏽
I bet most of that 35% is the next gen of builders with less roots here. They may not leave, but we’re gambling with our future economic prosperity.

- optimism - mission needs to stay the most important thing
@fahdananta - support politicians with new ideas and then hold them accountable
- start digital/AI practical training for Cdns (online, in libraries, everywhere)

Bad day for Entrepreneurship in Canada 🇨🇦👎. Capital gains tax rate is increasing from a 50% inclusion to 66%.
This increases the net capital gains tax rate from 27% to 36%...
