Going to grad school abroad?

Hello Ladies and Gentlemen of r/IOpsych. I'm looking for some input and opinions. I'll be finishing up my bachelors in either Fall 2012 or Spring 2013. I'll be applying to start a graduate program for Fall 2013. I'm currently most focused on a non-terminal Masters degree to eventually continue onto a PhD program.

The reason I'm not putting all my focus into a PhD program right away is that for various reasons I sucked at freshman year/first semester of sophomore year, so my GPA is only at around a 3.2/3.3 overall. I currently have minimal research experience (working on it), and am applying for HR internships for Summer 2012 (my understanding is that this is as close to an IO internship as I can find).

Now to the point. I am a New York State resident attending a state school for undergrad. I have always had a deep, abiding love for Canada, and have always felt that I fit in better to their social system and general culture than I do here in the US. While I'm not desperate to get out of the US, I am very attracted to at least grad school in Canada, if not long-term plans for permanent relocation and duel-citizenship.

So I'm wondering if I do go to school in Canada, will I be limiting my potential in the US job market? Would potential employers look down on my degree from a Canadian university? I'm most interested in going into the private sector, hoping to open my own consulting firm down the line.

Also, from what I've read, I/O seems to be a fairly steadily-growing field in the US, but does anyone know if is that inconsistent in Canada?

TL;DR: US student finishing undergrad, has questions about going to grad school in Canada.
