Have a read of the wiki articles: http://britishexpats.com/wiki/Catego...Hunting-Canada and http://britishexpats.com/wiki/Quick_...uctions-Canada

Look at the jobs section on BE: http://britishexpats.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=160 and http://britishexpats.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=137

Have you thought of applying under the Federal Skilled Worker (Trades) Program?
