Overall, I think the list is both helpful and silly. It is helpful as it gets you thinking about certain strong and weak points. It is a silly list though as it's apples to oranges with data. Are airports crap in general with wait times? Flight access? Or, the fact that Canadian stats obviously were not really used.

Houston and Atlanta both look very attractive and have the bones to support the project, I just don't think Texas and Georgia would roll out big time subsidies for Amazon though.
I mean, it does show Riverside, Jacksonville, Grand Rapids and Richmond to have better job growth than Montreal and Toronto, which I find hard to believe. They probably didn't fetch much data on that part either.
