I thought the idea of retiring to a place like Mexico is that it's cheaper than staying home. More bang for the Social Security and pension buck.Why is it that sooo many Canadians can afford to move Internationally is my question?
There used to be a show on TV about dive travel & the host once made a comment that no matter where he went I the Caribbean, there were more Canadian business owners than any others. Is it something about the Canadian social system that allows folks to afford to make these moves?

When I went to Palau back in 2002, some DMs were joking that when they wanted to talk about odd habits of Japanese divers, that they referred to them as Canadians so as not to cause offence against any Japanese divers who understood English. They didn't have to worry about offending Canadians because no Canadians could afford to go to Palau at the time.For the last 10 years I've seen more and more Canadians around me in regard to traveling to foreign countries, anywhere I've went I run into Canadians. We jokingly call them the new 'American' tourists cause they were taking up the slack in the declining number of American's traveling because of the recession. . . So it's not ones imagination, Canadians for the last 10 years have been stretching their wings and landing all over the world, especially Mexico, but that's probably going to start changing slowly back because their government is focused on currency devaluation and domestic growth now.
