I am not sure what the problem is

During the last low - dollar high tax rate differential with the USA (under Chretien), the country lost somewhere around 300,000 professionals.

This accomplishes two things - it leaves behind a greater percentage of the population that is employed by governments at all levels, which ensures the re-election of governments who favour these classes.

In addition, it creates a new field of work for these bureaucrats - creating soft programs like billboards in Silicon Valley trying to lure back the same people who where driven out by these programs....

I wonder what the next campaign will be? "Come back for the weather. Stay for the lower dollar, and higher taxes..."
