It must be very strange for Canada at the moment.
New Zealand has a somewhat similar relationship with Australia.
Many NZers come and go from Australia all the time. The Australian government has a bit of a superior attitude when it comes to NZ

Massively worse in my experience. I've had ongoing turnover when people just can't maintain their health or brain-function at an adequate level to perform. They give up and leave.
There's been a worker shortage, so no fear of unemployment until very recently.
One 'went mad' and defrauded me of $ks.
