According to Wealth Professional, a Canadian finance magazine, lots of entrepreneurs are leaving Canada because of its lockdowns and mandates. According to the article, the CEO of an Ontario wealth management firm has now been living in Costa Rica for two months and “has no intention of returning until Ontario no longer requires vaccination passports.”

The Ontario CEO also says he knows of 30 other business owners who have left the country and may eventually take their businesses with them. He said the 30 entrepreneurs — along with thousands of employees who generate millions of dollars a year in taxes — have left Canada for the southern U.S., Mexico, and Costa Rica in the past four months.

“Life is very different here than in Canada. There are no restrictions. There are no vax-passports. They closed the special ICUs in the hospitals a month ago because of a lack of cases,” CEO Arthur Salzer told reporters.

In Costa Rica, doctors typically prescribe ivermectin and Vitamin D for Covid infections.

If it represents a trend, and it seems likely that it does, this is great news for freedom-oriented countries and certain U.S. states, which are benefitting from the influx of capital and high-achieving individuals and businesses. Think about it — UNSUCCESSFUL businesses and those LACKING capital can’t afford to move. It is the most successful firms and individuals that are the most mobile. Brains, ingenuity, and creativity are draining out of the pro-lockdown areas like water running off a beagle puppy’s back.
