This is often more a myth than a reality. I've looked a jobs in the US and
found that I can make more in Toronto ON than in most places in the US.
The places in the States where salaries are higher have outrageous real
estate costs. After paying for a place to live and for medical insurance
and expenses and all those other things we in Canada take for granted,
you're just as well off staying home. Not true for some professions, but
true for many.

Besides, Canadians have more clean water to paddle in.
