Hi, You can apply for a skilled immigration visa or a work permit visa: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/index.html

thanks Tsveta,

Would you know how long the process is? Am i allowed to go there and just look for a job or is that not really an option? I would like to know the fastest way of getting over there and furthering my career out there?

Hi, you can come as a tourist, I don't think you need a visa for that and if I am not mistaken you can stay up to 6 months. After that you have to apply for a visa as temporary resident. You can look for a job but you need a work permit to work here. If an employer is willing to sponsor you you can apply for work permit. Why don’t you check CIC web site for more info on the subject and call them. They can give you more accurate info.:
