Canada aims to provide better access to capital for companies to scale up without selling out. The country leverages its advantage in attracting global tech talent by offering easier emigration processes and quick visas for engineers, resulting in the establishment of engineering centers. While acknowledging that other places offer higher monetary rewards, Canada focuses on providing a high quality of life, advanced education, and a strong community. Moreover, Canada has allocated 2.4 billion Canadian dollars to support AI research labs and provide access to AI compute, demonstrating its commitment to advancements in artificial intelligence despite the significant financial investments made by other countries like Saudi Arabia. The concern is raised about whether liberal democracies will have sufficient resources to compete in the rapidly growing AI field.
