Since when is the whole US tech scene the same as Silicon Valley. All the statistics they showed were Canadians moving to the US in general for tech jobs. I am sure they are not all moving to Silicon Valley. Based on their own statistics seems like they should be going to Austin. |

In Canada it's closer to $50k.
To put that salary into perspective, the median Web developer salary in the US is nearly $70,000 according to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics. You can go live in a small'ish third tier US city in states like Iowa or Wisconsin and earn $75,000 per year as an ok Web developer, where houses cost $150-$200k. Or remote from those locations and do even better.
The top 10% of programmers in the US earn over $135k. The median is around $83-$85k. It's likely that the US median programmer pay is at least 2x that of Canada's median.
