If he/she has a passport yes.

As the doofus above probably can't even attempt to answer why having a (presumably) Canadian passport (or one from any other country you may be a national of) would make a difference (Visa allow one in to the US, but the question would still be accessto the courts here)...you too should disregard the answer. Certainly, business entities in the US can file bankruptcy.

Foreign creditors may be able to attempt to collect from you. Just moving away does not cancel your debt to society and once you return to the US you could be in more trouble than before. You still owe the debts - they never go away and they will try as hard as possible to collect from you.
