Carreyed to the south

This BBC news article is another sad bit of proof of the on-going brain drain of Canadian talent to the US. I use 'brain drain' a little tongue in cheek there. Jim Carrey wouldn't be considered by most to be a brain drain, but he certainly does have considerable talent. Certainly more than was initially exhibited in his stint on In Loving Colo(u)r.

Canada has, for years, been losing much of its talent in terms of doctors, scientists, engineers and artists to the United States because of the obvious lure of a more lucrative living south of the 49th parallel. There's a really long post hiding in this last paragraph.
