| Abstract | This paper reverses the conventional migration lens to focus on the understudied case of a growing population of Americans in Canada. What motivates these native-born US citizens to migrate; how do they adapt to life north of the 49th parallel; what is the nature of the ties they maintain to their US homeland? Drawing on fieldwork in Ottawa, Toronto, and Vancouver, this paper identifies similarities between Americans and other migrants, but also points to a pervasive attitude of nonchalance as a notable difference. Examining migrants of relative privilege in North American helps refine theory rooted in assumptions of marginalization and advances analyses of continental integration.L’auteur renverse le modèle conventionnel de migration en examinant le cas, peu étudié, de la croissance de la population états-unienne au Canada. Qu’est-ce qui incite ces Américains nés aux États-Unis à migrer? Comment s’adaptent-ils à la vie canadienne? Quels liens maintiennent-ils avec leur patrie états-unienne? Basée sur des recherches sur le terrain menées à Ottawa, à Toronto et à Vancouver, cette étude identifie des similarités entre les Américains et d’autres migrants, tout en soulignant l’attitude de nonchalance qui distingue les migrants états-uniens. L’étude des migrants privilégiés en Amérique du Nord sert à affiner les théories centrées sur l’idée de marginalisation et fait avancer l’analyse de l’intégration continentale. |
