I think they would when the alternative is the US and their tax structure. We already see a brain drain of our best tech workers to Seattle and Silicon Valley.
In Canada we view Toronto, rightly so, as they easiest place to convince talent to move to, but try getting Americans to go there.
The only benefit we have up north is our immigration schemes, but this is a multi-decade decision by Amazon and they aren't going to make it based off the current flavour of the month (Trump).

Well this just makes no sense at all.
If Calgary was that much of a shoo-in why do they have no Amazon offices currently?
Clearly Amazon is not interested in the plethora of available office space in Calgary or their recent spate of Canadian expansion would all be there.
Amazon is currently advertising positions in the following Canadian cities:
- Vancouver: 350 positions
- Toronto: 90 positions
- Clagary: 5 positions
Kinda says it all right there.
