We have no lack of people who are pigeonholed in technology-based jobs that have no avenue for working remotely (e.g. ones where you handle physical hardware).
But for jobs which are ripe for being done remotely (e.g. programming), once you are here, why would you work for a Canadian company when it is just as easy to work for a US company at twice the rate?
Immigrating to America is a pain in the ass.
Speaking as a former American... even emigrating from America is a pain in the ass. The entitlement America feels towards information about my life outside of their country is insane.
Exactly โ which is why hands on jobs have no lack of people keen to work for Canadian businesses.
