Is it legally possible to move to Canada and work, from the US?

Is it possible to get a visa to work and live in Canada, even temporarily, if I can find a place which has a job opening? I am in the US.

Check with the Immigration Canada website. They have a test online which will tell you whether you might have enough points to apply for immigration. Having enough points to be allowed to submit an application does not mean it will be approved.

If you can find a job, an employer can apply for a temporary employment visa for you. Do you have a degree and expertise in a field where Canada is short of qualified workers? They do need (last I checked) experienced mining engineers who are graduates of top-rated Schools of Mines (preferably with masters) in mining engineering. The jobs are north of Yellowknife, Northern Territories.

They really don't need much else as Canada has excellent schools & universities. If you were thinking of casino employment or other low-level jobs, forget it as they have a serious glut of such workers in a very depressed market.

There is a worldwide glut of employees -- of an estimated BILLION people! -- at almost every level. There is a glut of some 20+ million US citizens in the US alone. Not counting all the employment visa holders, illegal aliens, etc.

sure - you can try

BUT the competiton for jobs is fierce and legal residents will always be chosen over foreigners.

There is a world wide recession now, which IS ALSO AFFECTING Canada, and people here are being laid off from jobs as well.
