Extremely important paper from Agos Brinatti . Restrictive US migration policy pushes immigrants to competing countries like Canada. This helps Canadian firms grow and compete with US firms in the international goods and services market. Check out her JMP ⬇️
One of the authors of this paper Alison Pei is on the job market and I am really glad to see Florian’s shout-out.
