      The land of the free isn't catering to talented techies quite like our neighbors to the north. So many entrepreneurs have given up on navigating the complicated U.S. immigration system and are heading to Canada to launch their startups.

      For Madhuri Eunni -- originally from Hyderabad, India -- Canada offered her the ability to finally launch her own company, which she wasn't able to do in the U.S.

        The US is very anti-immigration, more than just about anywhere (except Japan.) We lose tons of talent simply because we either turn them away outright or they just give up because it is not worth it. It's more than just losing incoming talent, talent flows out of the US as well.
