    Times of India's Ishani Duttagupta on whether Susie Wiles worries
    that Donald Trump could be made to regret including the TN visa with
    his NAFTA 2.0 treaty with Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador and Justin
    Trudeau: <URL:https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/nri/us-canada-news/canadas-open-work-permit-could-become-a-permanent-pathway-to-the-us-for-many-indians/articleshow/102041660.cms>
    | A large number of applicants for the H-1B open work permit scheme
    | are likely to be Indian employees of US companies which are looking
    | to set up or expand their operations in Canada, feels Ajay Sharma,
    | president of consultancy firm Abhinav Immigration Services.
    |
    | "US companies setting up operations in Canada have been facing
    | difficulties in finding the right talent. H-1B visas are limited in
    | numbers and there's huge uncertainty over getting green cards; so
    | these companies are likely to be looking at the option of
    | transferring staff members who are in the US through the open work
    | permit scheme," he says.
    |
    | For individuals who have applied for the OWP scheme there is the
    | option to move permanently to Canada from the US with their families
    | since family members are also eligible for student and work visas.
    | However, the salaries in Canada are less than the US for the same
    | skillsets and many who receive the Canadian work permit may defer
    | their plans to move to Canada till they find suitable jobs, feels
    | Sharma.

    Does Wiles worry that Miriam Adelson, Ken Griffin, Julia Koch, Bernie
    Marcus, Lachlan Murdoch, David Sacks and Steve Wynn will allow Ron
    DeSantis to deploy the likes of Mike Emmons at their campaign rallies?

    Fetterman ate into the Trump realignment's gains across the state by
    enough to win--white working-class areas that flipped for Trump
    stayed red, but enough voters there flipped back to Democrats to
    hand Fetterman the win https://t.co/BMGiTOQzJi" - Nate Hochman <URL:https://twitter.com/njhochman/status/1591621465384054784>
