>>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.<<
The "difference" is jobs. How many Tech Writers do you know that are looking for work where you are be it America, Canada or elsewhere? The fact is, the companies are following the bottom dollar and going for the cheap labor wherever they can get it. Good writers are having to work for whatever they can get or re-sell themselves to prove their worth.
