We paid 100 million for these ninjas to do this work? All the smart techs in America and we go to Canada? This is BEYOND F'N Stupid!

It's not Canadians breh. I work for them. The federal division is a wholly owned subsidiary. Foreigners are not allowed to work on federal projects unless they live in the US and have HI-B visas and even then, they can only work in certain projects only.

shyt is embarrassing as fukk though. We just lost the contract to one of our biggest competitors. $90 Millie, but this hurt our brand given that we went from anonymous to infamous in the eyes of the general public.

Side note: one of our execs attended Princeton with Michelle Obama.

not sure what you are saying... the link says they are a Canadian company. We have plenty of companies inside the country with American citizens to do that job.

The parent company CGI is Canadian. CGI federal is a wholly owned subsidiary of the parent company. By law it has to hire American Citizens. The people working on the website were American.
