Your questions are very vague.

Do you have a job offer or any thing from Canada? In order to apply for a temp work permit for Canada, one needs a job offer from an employer in Canada. Then the employer applies for an LMO on your behalf and sends you the LMO which you use to apply for work permit at your local Canadian embassy.

No problem, usually people reach out to websites listing open positions.

But in general there are better chances for jobs in which it is difficult to find canadians with equal skills.

Often employers / or intermediate consultants post vacancies on forums including this very one. There are threads on canadavisa.com listing all kinds of jobs (though generally low skilled ones). The difficult part is figuring out if they are real and don't take money from you and ditch latter.

Generally speaking it is tough to find one. I personally have no idea since i just happened to be contacted by the employer himself since they were looking for a skill that was relatively rare and i possess that.
