So people from China/India have more exposure to the USA than say, Vancouver. (to immigrate to Vancouver from hong kong you needed one million dollars in the 90s)

That's false. It has long been easier to emigrate from China or India to Canada than to the U.S.:

Canada immigration does have a category for people who invest large sums in the local economy, but the U.S. also has such a provision, though the U.S. threshold is actually higher than Canada's. The main difference is that you can emigrate to Canada without any money or family there if you amass enough points under their immigration system, which rewards education, work experience, age, and language proficiency in English and French, among other things.

So the information you are spreading about Canadian immigration law requiring Asian immigrants to have a million dollars (in the 90's or now) just simply isn't true.
