    highly skilled -> high income -> more money saved -> easier to buy a plane ticket for higher pay

    Highly skilled locals, too. Anecdotal, but all of the smartest people I graduated university with have left. It’s a lot easier to land 400k salaries outside of Canada.

    Highly educated and skilled immigrants are the most likely to leave Canada within five years of landing, according to a new report commissioned by the Institute for Canadian Citizenship (ICC).

    Isn’t it sort of obvious that the immigrants who are most desirable are most likely to move around? I don’t see that as a solvable problem and while I can’t find numbers I’m pretty skeptical that other developed countries look any different but I wasn’t able to find comparable stats.
