At the University of Waterloo just west of Toronto, almost everyone gets a job from a remote location during their CO-OP terms while in university, and then also when they graduate.

I got a job in Boston from Toronto, and then one in New York from Boston. Getting flown out to Silicon Valley or Seattle for the bigger companies is also pretty common. It's even easier when you have a friend working in another city. The best places to work don't care where their candidates come from if they're good and willing to move.

I think the guy who wrote this article meant to say that it's easier to find a local job. But he's seriously out of touch with reality if he believes it's really hard to find a job in another city.
