Interested in opening a startup office in Canada?

Question

I'm testing an idea - would anyone with a US based startup be interested in establishing product and engineering operations in Canada - and needs help getting it up, managing and executing on the plan? Would this be interesting to you (why or why not?). I know some companies are promoting this, but I'm just 1 startup-experienced product/eng team leader who would like to pitch this to a great startup i'd want to contribute to.

Interesting concept. I have been thinking about the same idea for quite some time. I would love to connect if you are interested.

Are you pitching this as a service to startups or are you finding a particular startup to work with?

In Toronto you can get some amazing developers for half the price of the U.S. A lot of the really good workers despise the U.S. so much, especially right now because of Trump, that you can steal all the rock stars for your startup by offering smart perks.
Also right now we can bring in foreign workers to staff up operations really easily so this is probably a good idea.
Your customer service probably will have to be out of the U.S. or somewhere outside of Toronto, maybe Saskatchewan.
