Hello.
I need an advice.
I'd like to live in Canada. And if I'll come there with tourist visa how can I stay there longer? What should I do to get a status?
Thank you.

Yes, you can apply for extension as a visitor. You have to send your application to CPC, Vegreville, Alberta.

You would have to find an employer. The employer should apply for labor market opinion (LMO)/HRSDC confirmation if required for your job offer. Then you need to change your status from visitor to worker by sending your application to CPC, Vegreville.
