Entitled to work in Canada (or any country) means that: - You are a citizen of that country - You have a valid visa for that country Many types of visa are available depending where you come from and what you want to do in Canada. Work visa, study visa, traveller visa... Look up the details at this adress: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/index.asp

Currently if you are not a Canadian you are not entitled to work in Canada When and if ... you get a visa then you can say yes

People can be legally entitled to work in Canada due to: - being Canadian citizen, - have a valid Permanent Resident status, - have a valid Protected Person status (i.e. have refugee claim that approved), - have a valid open work permit (work permit which does not have limitation on the type of work nor where you can work). No, any visa by itself will not make you entitled to work in Canada.

You must be a canadian citizen, a PR of Canada, be an approved refugee or have a canadian open work permit to be allowed to work in Canada. An ordinary work permit restricts you to a specific company If you dont have any one of those then you are NOT legally entitled to work in Canada
