Certainly would be a lot cheeper. They would not have to pay American taxes
(+FICA, madicare etc), and given current Russian salaries they will come in
droves and will be willing to work for 10K, and then of course, try to stay
here. It is already happening in the computer programming area (Indians,
Russian, Bielorussians and many others).

By the way, for a job in Canada, Robert, non-Canadians need not apply. It
is stated in your adds.
