Try looking at www.bunac.org.uk - for a one year visa and www.cic.gc.ca for immigration information.
I think the trades are very much in demand so you might be able to get a work permit and get there fairly quickly. I'm sure there are some people on here who will be able to tell you more about this.
If you get a Bunac visa you can go for a year and try some different areas and hopefully get someone to sponsor you for a permit. What are your reasons for going, what are you hobbies and what sort of places do you like living in?

What area was you looking to go to? If British Columbia suits you could try going for PNP. We will be going over in sept on PNP and husband is a bricklayer. You would need a qualification certificate i believe.
