We're kind of considering the opposite. We live 30 km from a small town in rural NS and looking at the big city! lol

Big difference when you are job hunting over here

To add to Zoe's helpful comments above I have attached a "sample resume" in the Canadian style. This is something we often provide to clients to illustrate the typical format. Of course there is still some skill needed in making it persuasive enough to an employer to actually get you an interview; but if you follow this format at least you will be sending something that doesn't look radically different to what Canadian employers are used to.
