A Canadian maybe? ;)

But honestly. People have been moving cross-country to relocate plants and set
up operations. What's different between setting up a branch in Vancouver when
you live in Montreal or going off to India to do the same? Oh, yeah. Only thing
it comes down to is they're Indians and we aren't. Us and Them.

That's why I find these discussions unnerving. If you think you have the right
to work for a company that sells overseas, then anyone else has the right to
produce product destined for Canada or the USA in an overseas location.
