I am reminded of the American aerospace industry in the 19560's, After the collapse of the Avro Arrow, NASA Boeing and Lockheed snapped up Canadian (male) aeronautical engineers to  help create the most modern fleet of flying machines.   Silicone Valley, in California,   has many male Canadian geeks in software and computer engineering simply because there was / is  no outlet for their talents here. We buy back for Apple, MS, and Intel  things designed by Canadians.   Soon there will be even fewer opportunities for men bursting with ideas in Canada.
