If they are paying taxes to the U.S. and not to Canada, then absolutely.

I'm not saying that it should be hard to re-establish their citizenship if they decide to move back though. But why should our government and taxpayers be on the hook for protecting the rights of Canadians that choose not to be part of Canada for several years at a time?
