In speaking about the path to acquisition, “be prepared to tell and sell the story of the ability for your management team to execute” — Robyn Doritty from @RBC Capital Markets at the @CADInnovators Capital Markets Summit
The dilutive vs. non-dilutive capital showdown between @PeterLHass and David Rozin onstage at the @CADInnovators Capital Markets Summit is what I love about this community 👏👏👏 Debates are what make panels worthwhile! 💯
Excellent explainer on why the Canadian budget will kill our tech ecosystem👇

It’s not about a tax on capital gains. This is a tax on Canadian ambition. At a time when we need it most.
I actually think too much is being made of cap gains increase relative to the broader concerns but the framing is disingenuous. It's not the 0.13% richest Canadians. It's the 0.13% of the biggest tax events in a given year. If you work for 14 years and sell your business, you…

Canada is desperate for new investment dollars. What does this government do? Punish investing. 🤦🏻♂️ You can’t make this stuff up.
We need to be doing everything we can to turn Canada into the best place for entrepreneurs to build 🇨🇦 What's proposed in the federal budget will do the complete opposite. Innovators and entrepreneurs will suffer and their success will be penalized -- this is not a wealth tax,…
As someone who grew up both in the US and Canada, I’ve always felt that the uniquely Canadian way to incentivize entrepreneurship is to reduce builders’ downside risk by catching us when we fall. Starting a company is easier when you know your basic healthcare, shelter and…
A scam caller just quoted Walter White to me after I called out his criminal behavior. Honestly, it was hilarious. I wish he'd call back

This was my first time on a podcast! We talked about energy, nuclear, and what we're up to at @AaloAtomics. Was a lot of fun expanding on some of the subtler sides of concepts I've Tweeted about. Thanks again @EricJorgenson!

People throw a lot of shade at VCs but our experiences with @GoldenVentures, especially @JamieRosenblatt and @alisonmichellek have been nothing short of amazing. Float would not be here without them. Founders, talk to Golden. They are gems.
Canadians are amazing team members. Hard working, smart, humble, loyal, and long-term.

"People won't leave or stop investing over an extra 8% tax on capital gains." The previous generation with established roots? Probably not. The current and future generations? They're already going. How many @ycombinator co's founded by Canadians stay in Canada? 20%?
Building with purpose, taking risk, creating financial+intellectual+community wealth, attracting talent to our country, creating optionality for entrepreneurs and investors alike, rewarding entrepreneurship, investing & believing in ourselves. That's the future Canada 🇨🇦 I want…

I lost my mom this week after a year long battle with Cancer. She was an incredible person and she will be deeply missed.
@marbulger It’s pretty insane! Need competent leaders Marianne
@marbulger Even from an outsider perspective who might be looking to expand into Canada these sorts of policies give a lot of reason to pause and re-evaluate. A wild approach.
@Lanampayne How does the increase in capital gains directly lower grocery bills?
We don’t need a class war in Canada. We need prosperity, wealth creation, and growth. Let’s unite, not divide. What is the outcome we all want? Good, well-paying jobs in Canada with fantastic employees and employers that compete at a global scale.
Rich people in Canada losing their minds over paying a little more. While regular folks are getting fleeced at the grocery store. Read the damn room. #cdnpoli
Canada’s governing party sent a clear message to job creators, talent, and investors who take chances on Cdn businesses (Main Street and technology alike): “For best odds of success, maybe go elsewhere”.
Thank you to @VCPlatform for an incredible 2 days of learning and inspiration. This is a killer community!
It’s not about a tax on capital gains. This is a tax on Canadian ambition. At a time when we need it most.
I actually think too much is being made of cap gains increase relative to the broader concerns but the framing is disingenuous. It's not the 0.13% richest Canadians. It's the 0.13% of the biggest tax events in a given year. If you work for 14 years and sell your business, you…
To make the tax system fair, we're going to make sure the ultra-wealthy pay a bit more. #Budget2024
Maybe the government wanted to continue pitting Canadians in different tax brackets against each other instead of uniting on the one thing that would bring us together. We don’t like how they’re spending our money.
If Canada is serious about keeping the increased capital gains rate, they must at least: 1. Change the Lifetime Capital Gains Exemption from CCPC to something like "The majority of Common Shares are owned by Canadian citizens." 2. Add a carve out for venture investing.
Memories are short. Capital gains tax reform in 2012 opened Canada as a competitive investment regime to foreign (mostly 🇺🇸) capital. The reversal of this may not be felt immediately, but it will have generational impact. Many will still build businesses in Canada, but they will…
