Same. I grew up in Canada and my country didn't fund my dreams. The US did. It is a shame and the amount of loss that Canada has every single year because the dumb VCs who exist in Canada cannot look at that big picture.

For example, right now there is not a single VC in Canada who does large pre seed / seed investments based on an idea and the founding team.

In the US you can get a 1 million cheque within a week.

That is the real reason Canada is failing on a macro scale.

@dang hopefully I have kept this well balanced.
