Love your enthusiasm. Think you have a lot of homework to do! Start with the archive here
Little point IMO trying to land a job before arriving in canada and being legally allowed to work, but you never know. Doubt you will get a supervisor position without previous canadian experience. Jobs here are all about who you know and "networking"
Canada is not the States, but i guess there are similarities. You will really piss a lot of Canadians off if they think you are just here as a second class equivalent to the US!
Good Luck

Got to agree with iaink, it can look easier but not always the case.
If you have any emigration questions you can always check out http://britishexpats.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=33 and if you haven't all ready check out CIC web site http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/
Hope this helps.

Agree with iaink
From my experience the bits of canada i've experienced far outrate the east of usa i've visited(quite extensive).
The countries may appear the same, but a mcd's m looks the same globally! The people couldn't be more opposite.

Don't you have to be a student to do Bunac and it's only for one year. Also you can't apply as a skilled worker while at University because you need at least one years fulltime work experience.
