More than 15 per cent of immigrants decide to leave Canada either to return to their homeland or immigrate to another country within 20 years of their arrival, according to a new study.

That was exactly my thought. Iโ€™m in the tech industry, and so we work with a high percentage of people on visas and such. A lot of people want to come to the US because of the advantages in salary and exchange rates, but will then move back home after making their nest egg. Iโ€™m told you could retire in comfort in India with $1M USD. Combine that with returning to family and culture, and I think that even if this statistic applies only to people with what were long term immigration plans, it seems an entirely reasonable number.
