It doesn't work that way, especially with student debt. If I were a child and could choose, it might make sense to choose Canada. But children don't usually get to choose. When do you choose? For many people, when they graduate from college. At that point, you're from Canada and don't have student debt. Great! Wonderful!
But the salary is still higher in America. So you can go to America without the student debt, and still get the higher salary. And why not? (You could think of this as arbitrage between two ways of structuring society economically.)
But maybe the thing to do is to go back to Canada when you have kids, so that their university won't load them down with student debt.
