I agree that on average workers in the US have it worse than comparable workers in Alberta. What I don't agree with is your insinuation that it is due to employers choosing to treat them better here when the reality is our legislation does not give them any other option. There are Canadian companies who are just as number driven and cutthroat as Amazon, they just have a different set of rules and guidelines to operate under.
