Do I need a TN Visa to offer services to the US while I work in Canada

Do I need a TN Visa to offer services to the US while I work in Canada?
I am getting an offer in the IT industry from a US company. I work and reside in Canada and I am a Canadian Citizen. I have my work registered under a Canadian corporation. Do I need a TN visa to accept a contact from a US company but I would work off of my computer in Canada and communicate to them via email and telephone? There could be a possibility of a business trip. At that point in time would I need a TN visa? thanks!

Yes, you do have to know English to work in Canada. Depending on what part of Canada you go to, you may also have to speak French.

Yes, but Canada is veru bad! I spent over three years looking hard for a job in Canada through the internet. I studied a lot about the Country. I got to know a lot about its culture, geography, history, politics and so on. It was very hard but I got to find a job approved by HRSDC, in February of this year, to work in Edmonton, Alberta. I submitted all required documentation to the Canadian consulate. For my surprise the immigration officer refused my work permit. He said that I do not have strong economic ties to my country. Is it not prejudice? Is the opportunities only for riches? Is not an unemployed an human? I tried to go legally, I did everything within the law. I had employer and place to stay. But what was the advantage of doing that legally? None - Canadian government refused my visa!

Here is information on the matter: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/study/work-offcampus.asp You will be required to receive a work permit. Why not get a small job on campus to support you for a while until you can find something [possibly] better off-campus?

No,you need to go through immigration and have all the required documents before you can work.Being married to a Canadian does not guaranty that you will even be excepted,but it does help.Go to the link below for info http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/index.asp

Unfortunately, no. Just being married to a Canadian Citizen does not entitle you to work there. You will have to apply for immigration and once you get your visa, you can start working there. The immigration process doesn't take that long.
