I can tell you that they are not. What I can’t tell from your post is how that is going to affect your opinion.
If Americans were going to lose their jobs, I’d be against it, but, apparently, jobs are not moving:

I did notice, in the above link, that Burger King isn’t above using the threat of a move from one US state to another to extort money from the first state. Being legal doesn’t make this OK. Until we clean up our own internal inter-state crony capitalism , I don’t see focusing on Canada if it does something similar.
Fuck 'em. If they want to be a Canadian company, they can damn well sell me some Canadian grub.

We have seen a resurgence of mercantilism, austerity, beggar thy neighbor, race to the bottom mentality that will ultimately fail for the same reasons they failed the first time.
Hopefully with fewer torches and pitchforks…

I wouldn’t be so sure.
Well, I did say hope, not expect.

Your position doesn’t seem to take into account that, in the US, businesses ARE citizens, since we count them as people.
They aren’t and you don’t.
