Guys, what's the best way to look for canadian jobs while from US?
 
On my CV should I just put my friend's address in Canada? Ofcourse I can always travel from US to Canada for any interviews. Hoping you guys can share some tips.

Your resume should contain your current US address, but you can mention an alternative address here in canada (your firend's), but i can't see any issue keeping your US address on your resume if you want to work in Canada knowing that you are a Canadian PR. The fact is when you are shortlisted for an interview, your current job is in USA and the employer will anyways find out that you are working there and reside there, so they will contact you in USA if they are interested.
The only concern that the employers might have is the relocation issue, which you clearly have to mention that on your cover letter to clear this issue.
