Those are terrible news for me since we were considering moving to Toronto, and what you mention is exactly what I was afraid of.

Now that nepotism sounds more like something that happens where I live, funny that there's the same cronyism over there.

As someone who works at a Toronto startup, I suggest that you consider more than one person's opinion. No city is perfect but there are tons of talented people here and there is substantial government funding available that, in my experience, has nothing to do with nepotism.

I don't care a lot about government loans since those are a pain to get, I rather get a proper investor community, how is Toronto's?
