Toronto's not necessarily out of the running because of a smaller public purse; governments don't just throw money at companies for existing; they make investments that have to see returns, like, y'know, tax revenue.

Wages would be significantly lower in Canada and would be in Canadian dollars. That's a pretty big financial win for Amazon.
