I’ve just looked up the numbers, about 810k Canadian-born people in the USA (2017) and 377k US-born people in Canada (2016).

Adjusting for population sizes (USA has ~9 times the population), a random Canadian is about 4 times more likely to go south than a random American is to go north.

But there’s a reason I was focusing on just the symbolism, and that’s that I know how limited my knowledge is in this instance.
