> However, once a Canadian citizen, there is a possiblity to get transferred to a Silicon Valley arm of a US company from Canada (using the TN visa) and hence receive a higher compensation.

As a Canadian immigrant, I'd rather people don't come to Canada and get citizenship as a shortcut to go to another country.

I'd rather have professionals come and be productive no matter where they are vs. one person come and followed by 25 family members who never learn english and sit on welfare forever.

I'm OK with coming over and being productive, it's taking citizenship in a deceptive manner that I object to.

As another Canadian immigrant who became a citizen I'm 100% with you. This country is not a revolving door investment scheme for libertarians to seek easier entry into Silicon Valley.
