Take the Smartserve test (it's relatively easy) and you will be able to work at licenced premises such as bars, pubs and clubs - always work like that around. This is for Ontario.

Unlikely. For the CEC, the work experience must be 'skilled' i.e. NOC Level A, O or B on the Matrix.

I've not checked, but I don't think labouring type work would come under that. If the CEC is your aim, then make sure you check the skill level before you accept a job.

Good luck.
