Historically, more Canadians have emigrated legally and illegally (total) to the United States than Americans going to Canada. The U.S. is the world's #1 destination for immigrants by population....has been for decades...and that includes Canadians. Quote Economics trumps Virtue.

I am starting to go broke having to pay for my own up keep on top of looking after them also. My wallet is almost bare. I may have to sneak into America as an illegal where I may be able to live and survive. Quote

Some just stay all year and flit back and forth across the border to preserve provincial health care eligibility. I have worked with many Canadian IT consultants in the U.S....we know all their tricks. Quote Economics trumps Virtue.

No, I am talking about Canadian IT workers desperate for work, coming to the USA. They come just like Indians, Pakistanis, Ukrainians, South Africans, Chinese, etc., many hoping to get the coveted "Green Card". The Canadians think they are special status....but they are not. There are many thousands of Canadian illegals in the U.S...they just won't go home. I read their many sob stories on visa forums just for entertainment.
