I think more companies should look at Newfoundland Canada as a potential place to outsource. In the town of Grand Falls-Windsor there are multiple companies that are US based and rely on Canadians for their workforce. Those companies are benefiting from the lower cost of living that Newfoundlanders have compared to the rest of North America which in turn keeps salaries down. The people there are highly educated professionals with the credentials to suit most technology jobs. One of the companies that has a location there, choose Newfoundland in the late 90s after outsourcing to India for years and being very displeased with the results.
