What I don’t get is why Galen Weston has a mansion in Brampton? Why would you want to be around all those Jeets? I know the loblaws HQ is in Brampton
Indians are popular amongst wealthy circles because they think India is the economic future.
If you look at it purely in terms of GDP growth it may appear that way, but India has such massive social, political, and environmental issues that it's a heaping dump no matter how much GDP growth it has.
For example, something as basic as sanitation, clean water, and hygiene, India is horrific. Vietnam in comparison is five time more sanitary than India.
I like to look at which developing nations I can see being developed in the near future, and India is not one of them, but Vietnam I can totally see it being developed in the near future (it is less specialized than India, but it's socially, politically, and environmentally much more sound, and economic growth is strong).
This is why I don't entirely trust or rely on economists or corporates to run the country (like Carney), there are qualitative aspects that affect a country's development, culture being one of the more fundamental and vital pillars, and like not being a garbage dump.
Like I don't get how India having massive issues with public defecation and we have corporates like Elon Musk wanting to bring more Indians. Eugh. You can see it just in Canadian suburbs, the Indian neighborhoods are totally unkept, and you want to bring more of that? Forget about GDP growth!
Nine times out of ten the nice and manicured neighborhoods are White. Those are qualitative aspects of life that economists and corporates cannot and will not measure.
