I disagree. Besides issues with firearms, Canadian law is much more relaxed than U.S. law, especially when it comes to drugs.

With employment (especially IT), expect to make significantly less here than you would in the U.S., but the cost of living is generally lower.

Canada's much boasted about healthcare system is great if you don't mind waiting 8 hours in the emergency room (fatal injuries the exception).

Personally, I think Canada is a frozen shithole, but despite that there is no way I'd ever live in the U.S. over here. If you do move here you want to live in either Vancouver, Toronto, or Montreal, in that order. Everywhere else is so desolate you'll end up killing yourself.
