You will need to find a employer who is willing to hire you. Then he will have to file for a LMIA, for this he has to prove there is no Canadian-PR available for the job. The process is costly and will take anywhere between 3 to 9 months. After this is done, if successful you will then file the job offer + LMIA + work permit application. This takes anywhere from 2-4 months.

Good luck!

A Canadian lawyer can't help you find a job.

If you want to qualify for a work permit, you first have to secure a full time job offer in Canada. Once you have that job offer, your employer will need to obtain an approved LMIA. Once the LMIA is approved, you can then apply for a work permit. It tends to be very difficult to change your status from visitor to worker.

Make sure you have what is required to be successful with an asylum application - otherwise you'll just end up being removed from Canada and it will be next to impossible to return in the future. You'll need hard evidence to support your asylum claim if you want to be successful.
