Few people will argue with the assertion. Is it a good or a bad thing?

I have my own hypothesis on the drift. Many of the Canadians I know who have immigrated to the U.S. are social conservatives. So I'm wondering if Canada is simply suffering from a conservative drain. The more socially conservative a person is the more likely it is that he or she will move to the U.S.
