Answer 1

You are eligible if you can obtain a visa to come to Canada as either a tourist or a student.

You must apply for your own visa or get a consultant to help you. Your potential employer could not do it for you.

You must have the necessary education and a genuine interest in caring for others but since you are already a registered nurse that should not be a problem.
