Okay, looks like the major topic of interest for you guys is Jobs... eh? lol I had to add that because we reallly do say that! LOL
 

Labour Market Information (http://www.labourmarketinformation.ca)

Answer your questions about jobs, skills and the availability of workers in local areas across Canada.

 

Canada Job Bank is the *BEST* Resource (in  my eyes as it's free for employers to advertise and it's operated by the Government of Canada plus currently there are 25917 jobs posted!)

http://jobbank.gc.ca

Here's the direct link to the Job Bank Search

  • Careers in the Public Service

    Hi krisp,
     
    Well, it totally depends on what your qualifications are, experience, etc, how much start up money you have and how hard you are willing to work I suppose.  Self-employment depends on many different factors, you cannot just start up a company and expect to dollars to come running in. You are going to need connections and knowledge about the industry.... but all of that depends on what your qualifications and education are. Self employment takes guts and sacrifice, which I am not sure you want to tackle when you get to a new country.
