How do we retain talent in KW?

[plam]

So, how do we retain talent in KW?  I don't know what their needs are but I would guess that quick and easy access to Toronto would be a plus.  Also an airport with more destinations.  Some years ago I read that some of the better paid people were complaining that there aren't enough "high end" properties for sale.  I don't know if that's still an issue for some but many of the new condo developments could address that issue.  A good theatre company and a convention centre would also help.  What else??

I don't claim to have all the answers, but here's my thoughts. People have historically said that KW is "a good place to raise kids", which is sort of boring. When I talk to people I try to say "it's a good place to raise kids but also a good place to not raise kids" and how there are more restaurants now than there used to be. (Ironically, I don't go to restaurants as much as I used to, despite not having kids). I'm pretty sure culture, arts, dining, and other such amenities would help. Not sure about the airport; it's hard to seriously compete with YYZ. "High end" properties is something I can't really imagine.
