It's pathetic.
I don't see why that matters. People like to achieve high positions in their field. Actors and musicians from Canada often move to the states because places like L.A. offer opportunities that Canada doesn't. Engineers often move to developing countries where bridge and road building is booming. Elite biologists like to go work in places with greater biodiversity. For people in academia, going somewhere like Oxford or Harvard is where to go if you want to be at the top of your game. Brian Mulroney left Canada after he was PM... does that mean he was faking it when he was PM?

The world is an international community these days.
