Hi everyone,
My name is Michael and I am from Belgium, I really want to come to Canada for a long period (maybe even permanently) but to be able to fund my trip I would like to get work in Canada. At the Canadian embassy website in Belgium I've read that it is not permitted for tourists to work in Canada. After browsing and reading many many pages , I still can't seem to find out what the best way to do this is. Right now I live in Turkey with my mother and I know here you can only get a working permit for jobs that Turkish people are not able to do, for example like in tourism where they require native language speakers. I have seen some jobs in Canada that require knowledge of Dutch and/or German. Dutch is my native language and I also speak a little german and fluent English so I could apply for those jobs if I knew I am permitted to work in Canada. Also: does it matter which education degree I have and does it matter what kind of job I am applying for, ( for example if I get a job offer in some local grocery store would that do ?). Really hope somebody has some good guidance for me ! Thanks guys !
