We would love for you to leave Canada. What's stopping you ? Are you facing criminal charges in the US, or escaping a responsibility like alimony ? You whine about Canada and declare your American patriot bs, but you refuse to contribute to the US by paying taxes and residing in the US. The irony of a guy who declares he's a Canadian and an American but protests immigrants is not lost on us. I'd rather have a Syrian refugee family who is fully committed to life in Canada then you and your angry disposition and scams/frauds.
Keep that head planted squarely up your ass. Delusional
Better if you left. Try Germany. Theyre cuckholds over there. You'd fit right in.
Why don't you answer his questions instead of throwing more insults. It sounds like that is the only thing you're capable of.
Beware of h1b's on this blog pretending who they are not. All the Americans I know, including foreign born are against offshore/h1b. You all think Trump made up the ban on his own? This is one of his champagne promises, bring back American jobs.

Research verifies Trump stance on H-1B for U.S. tech workers
https://thestack.com/world/2017/02/16/research-verifies-trump-stance-on-h-1b-for-u-s-tech-workers/
Independent research has broadly confirmed that Donald Trump’s contentions over the harm that the United States’ H-1B has done to home-grown tech talent may be justified.
The study Understanding the Economic Impact of the H-1B Program on the U.S., led by John Bound at the University of Michigan, estimates that domestically-sourced tech talent would have earned 3%-5% more in the period studied without the H-1B scheme, with overall American employment in the sector projected 6% to 11% higher than it actually was.
‘While our conclusions depend on the specifics of our model, we believe them to be reasonable. As long as the supply curve of US workers is not infinitely elastic, and we believe that evidence indicates rather conclusively that it is not, the availability of high-skill foreign immigrants will shift out the supply of high-skill workers in the US economy. However, as long as the demand curve for high-skill workers is downward sloping, the influx of foreign high-skill workers will both crowd out and lower the wages of US high-skill workers.’
The research posits the conundrum that the H-1B program has been an economic benefit, and contributed to the general lowering of prices associated with immigrant occupation – effectively tasking the American citizen with a choice between those lower prices or the impetus towards ‘native-first’ employment policies.
The paper concentrates on the take-up and economic effects of the H-1B Visa program from 1994 to 2001, since this period is considered one of stable economic growth for the U.S. The program was instituted in 1990.
The H-1B program allows U.S. tech companies to hire from abroad for any role ‘so complex or unique that it can only be performed by someone with at least a bachelor’s degree in a field related to the position’, and which cannot be filled locally. It reached an apex of controversy in 2015 when Disney was accused of forcing its workers to train up their H-1B replacements as a condition for final settlement of salary – a case which presidential candidate Trump was to leverage in his 2016 election campaign.
In 2014 approximately half of 120,000 H1-B visas given by the U.S. went to computer science employees.
At the end of January a draft order regarding revision of the H1B scheme under President Trump was leaked; the order promises that U.S. immigration policies should be designed and implemented to first serve those born in the country, and that visa programs should be revised to prioritise native U.S. citizens over immigrant workers.

This is an easy issue for me, just like the election. The media were almost in lockstep against Trump, meaning he was obviously the right candidate to vote for.
If he can do something that will hurt the FANG companies, by all means do it. They have gone out of their way to get involved in partisan politics and have taken gratuitous swipes at him and his supporters. Payback time.
The fact that it will benefit American workers is a nice side benefit. Too bad they mostly live in California and are probably raging leftwingers themselves.
