How difficult/convenient is it for Chinese Nationals or Chinese-Canadians to find good jobs here?
How many job postings for the MICROSOFT Richmond branch have you seen? Where have you seen the job postings? Are such jobs posted in Chinese jobs/network sites?
Why do you think MS opened a branch office in Richmond?
As for Chinese nationals who come to work in Canada on temporary worker visas, what percentage of them stay and renew visas so they can apply for permanent resident status and citizenship?
Is China facing a brain-drain problem? If there is, what is the Chinese government doing about it?

If I were you, I would say:
Why do you think MS opened a branch office in Richmond?
answer: I have not thougt so, but it has been a fact.
Is China facing a brain-drain problem?
Ansew: No, never.

You might want to rethink your answer, I believe what he was meant to ask is "Why (do you think) MS opened a branch office in Richmond?". He is asking for your opinion on the reason that MS opened a branch in Richmond. Everybody knows that has been a fact.
Agree with your answer to the brain-drain problem.

In some way, it is pretty difficult as a lot of companies are looking for Canadian experiences. Language is still a big barrier for most people as I know quite a few engineers that their English skills are really really limited.

Don't know about that as I haven't check job sites for a while, but I haven't seen any postings on Chinese sites.

A few reasons:
1. Canada has a better and well-defined immigration policy than US. It is easier to get more talents here as right now H-1B visa in US is filled up so fast.
2. Vancouver is close to Seattle. ~2 hours drive is close enough, plus it is within the same time zone.
3. Vancouver is in North America, thus similar work culture as US IT engineers. I heard so many times that my friends had problem dealing with off-shore engineers, especially those in India (no discriminations, but this is what I heard).

Not at this point. Not sure about the future. Currently, north America will face shortage of IT staff because there will be much less IT graduate in a few years.

1。签证是容易些，但不能说政策更好。更吸引人才。
2。距离不是问题。time zone 也不是主要问题，如果这么方便，何必再搞一套办公室？岂不是浪费资源？
3。how about working with the guys from china? 容易引起争议的话题最好回避。（虽是实情，也不能说，啥叫多元？）
