it’s hard not to notice that Mexican people, in general, seem to wind up doing much better for themselves when they’re able to relocate and live under American or Canadian institutions.

You might also see more reverse migration, as retirement to Mexico could be a compelling opportunity for American or Canadian senior citizens living on fixed incomes.
