I'm just getting tired of living in America and I have always been interested in living in another country. I'm wondering if it is possible, as a US citizen, to find any type of work in Canada without needing to do all the paperwork and pay large amounts of money to go through the Canadian citizenship process first? I guess this question could apply to any country really, not just Canada. I would appreciate any help from anyone who knows about this.

You have to go through the process to become a landed immigrant to work here LEGALLY (been there am that). You could get a student or temporary work visa but you will have to look into what hoops you have to jump through to do that. I lived and worked for a number of years before becoming a citizen it isn't a requirement. To live and work in Canada all you need is perminenant resident status. BTW try trolling for something else.

You will not permitted to work here, without a work permit. You must apply for one, and have a job offer from a company in Canada, which must prove that they cannot find a Canadian to fill that position. So in a word, no.

Paperwork first, completed in your own country. You don't become a Canadian citizen at once, you are admitted, if accepted, as a Landed Immigrant or Permanent resident. You have to wait three years to apply to become a citizen.

Just as it is very difficult and expensive to immigrate to the US it is just as hard to emigrate to another country. The only way to easily move to Canada is if you have a college degree that is one allowed for a "TN Visa" As for avoiding paperwork, that would make you an illegal immigrant there. After all the trouble we give illegals here, do you really want to be one in another country.
