Canada's universities are improving at a fast speed for the past decade or so. But also Canada caters towards smart foreigners pretty well. Weren't American universities originally supported by British and French universities in the past?
Just to let you know, Canada is famous for communication studies in the academic world.

A "lot of" Japanese dream of going to university overseas, and the first country on their list is America, particularly if they are looking for a graduate-level degree. And more Japanese work and study in America than all other countries combined.

From what I heard, a lot of Chinese and Koreans are ditching American universities. Not to mention a lot of my professors are trying to encourage my peers NOT to go to American grad schools, instead British, German and Australian.

I believe there are huge differences for job migrations among provinces. At least Ontario has some flow of Americans into the province.
