Or, you know, you could go the Canadian route--i.e. grant permanent residence to high-skilled immigrants (which lets them become citizens), and not treat immigrants (i.e. granting immigrants permanent residence) as a matter to be viewed with disgust, hatred, callousness, and contempt.

Also, Canada rapidly transitions temporary work visa holders into permanent residents, instead of letting them languish as visa holders without basic rights for decades like the US.

And once you get Canadian citizenship, you can make the bigger bucks in the USA under NAFTA (or whatever it is called these days).

This is an obnoxious way of starting a point.

When I looked into it, I found that Canada’s really serious about the high-skilled part (or high-credentialed, anyway). A bachelor’s in CS and pile of experience won’t cut it (in fact, experience can hurt, because being older hurts your score) unless you have already landed a job with a Canadian company.
