Whether the NYC+ concept works remains to be seen. I see your point about the emigrants, and it's not completely crazy. They probably are telling people, but likely it is not the message we'd like.

I certainly doubt I <3 NY makes many tourists think of the Adirondacks as a destination. I think if continuing to broaden visitor's understanding/expectations of New York is a goal, the Dacks and Catskills, Finger-Lakes wine-country, Great Lakes, etc., should all be stressed more...similar to California's ads. I haven't seen a NY ad in a while...seemed they were starting to go that way at the time. Maybe if NY keeps exporting people we can just spread the knowledge among the larger public that way.
