The number of Americans moving to Canada was greater last year than in the previous thirty, says the Association for Canadian Studies.
The survey found that 10,942 Americans came to Canada in 2006, compared to just over 9,262 in 2005. In 2000, 5,828 came to the country.
While twice as many Canadians went to the States than Americans came to Canada, that ratio diminished between 2005 and 2006.
In 2006, 23,913 Canadians went to the U.S., resulting in a net loss of 12,971 to Canada when compared to the Americans coming to Canada.
But in 2005, the net loss to Canada was 14,668.
“When looking at the differences over the past few years in the real numbers between the two countries, Canada is undoubtedly narrowing the brain drain,” the study said.
Remember what was going on more than thirty years ago?
