Canada offers limited outsourcing opportunities from the US perspective. Population is only a bit over one tenth of the US and there is already a significant brain drain to the US due to higher salaries and ease of moving. Canada also has strict labor regulations and a "union problem" which aren't very appealing to US companies. The UK suffers from similar problems on top of the timezone issue. The company where I work has an office in both of these countries, but they only have a fraction of the US-based employees (and not growing in either). Most of the growth in the company is happening in the cheaper parts of the US instead.
