New An acceptable welcome mat.
Bring your greenbacks but leave the guns.


Is Canada an importer or exporter of sotware engineering jobs?

New Importer for the most part
Our dollar is cheaper than yours so labour is cheaper to pay for so we do pick up some of the US job exports. Not as cheap as India or some other third world country of course. For those companies that are US subsidiaries they may have to go along with the exporting elsewhere. I haven't heard too many homegrown Canadian companies exporting jobs outside. There's a fair bit of development work up here. Of course if you're seriously looking at coming here I'd suggest you do your own research since you know exactly what you're looking for.
