I maybe completely off base but here goes. R&D. Given the immigration message that the Trump administration is trumpeting world wide, and given the fact that Amazon invests more in R&D than any other American corporation, and given that Amazon wants to attract the best talent the world has to offer, it's not unreasonable that they might wish to spread risk. Over the last year they've invested over16 billion in R&D. They see Canada as welcoming?
