Bring your money to Toronto! I'm currently living in Toronto, but looking to move to Seattle once I start at Microsoft. That being said, I'll be making about 70% more in Seattle than I could hope to make in Toronto.

Toronto has favourable taxes for small businesses, and is close to some top engineering / computer science schools in Canada and the world (University of Toronto, Waterloo, Queen's University, McMaster). All of my friends currently working on startups in Toronto (myself included) are all bootstrapped, as there's not a lot of VC money around here.
