What about BC? I signed a non-compete clause a while back and it says I can't work for any competitor startup or start my own in that niche. Apparently the non-compete extends for a year after leaving. It mentions I can't offer consulting or work for the competition. It's been a few years now, but I wonder what other dirty tricks they may have up their sleeves regarding this.

I want to start my own company in this niche and I can't do it because of the fear that they will sue me if I ever make it on their radar.

BC government also is not in the habit of protecting tech workers and cares more about tax revenues. Maybe I should move to Ontario or leave Canada all together.
