If, as the article says, the overturn of the constitutional protection of abortions wasn't the greatest causing factor towards a desire to leave the country, what does this demographic seek to gain in other countries such as Canada? Popular problems such as the housing and employment crises are only worse in our northern neighbors.

They won't be burned at the stake, so there's a lot going on there. USA doesn't want them to have a life, and will gleefully let them die from basic medical complications.

All in all, Canada lacks the clear and present "cruelty is the point" the US has gone all in on.

I'm not sure what you're asking, here. Do you think all of those women are only in those positions because of "DEI", and not because they're vastly more qualified than the men around them? Do you think other countries don't also value qualified and capable women?

Or is this just some regurgitated Joe-Rogan-aligned schtick, where we just say code words and pretend like men are the only people who could possibly have any value?

I don't know how to say this in a way that people will believe, but unless the patriarchy is dismantled in the next 25 years, the US will cease to exist because women will have simple withdrawn from the social process. Why continue to create new people to throw into the financial/social/political woodchipper that is the US when opting out of it will eventually cause it to end in demographic collapse? If you want to save it, make it worth saving.
