I don't see why they simply wouldn't go work in the US if that was the case. Unless they aren't qualified enough.

"just move", basically. This is an absurd argument at the scale of a country, and even more absurd at an international scale.

If they weren't qualified the industry wouldn't have been poached. Rather, this suggests that at least at some point they were significantly more qualified than those in the US.

I can think of a number of good reasons why someone would want to live in Canada and not the US
