Not trying to pick a fight with my American colleagues but there is no reason we/they can't and a little thing called seniority! In addition, we have many Canucks in 'Merica and some Yanks in the great white north Eh! The company imposed the restrictions and it is not necessary. The USAOA will not be able to dictate whom gets those bases. WE/they can apply for a work visa and if approved cannot be stopped from coming. I would also agree that works both ways.
