Canada and the US are virtually equivalent in most respect for jobs, standard of living etc... I'm from Canada, and now live in the US, I lived in north Florida and have seen people struggle incredibly compared to anyone I can think of in Canada. Even the poorest in Canada can at least see a doctor when they really need it. I know many people who are about to lose their only option to healthcare if ACA is repelled. They'd be better off in Canada.

Canada doesn't accept immigrants with expensive pre-existing conditions though. Much like insurance companies pre-ACA.

Have you ever been to a reserve in Canada?

Reserves in the US aren't any better.

On the other hand, life as a lower class non-native person in Canada is far better then that of a lower class non-native person in the US.

Some of them are truly shocking. My mind is consistently blown when I go because I don't get that remote more than a few times a year but they are unbelievable.

It's bad I know, but as other pointed out it's no worse then some of the poorest areas of the US.
