Answer 4

I hate to break this to you, but it will difficult unless you're in a high skilled job. Sorry about that. Work visas are hard to get in Canada.

Answer 5

Seeing as you are a British citizen, it keeps it slightly less complicated. You would need a visa to both live and work, and likely for your child to receive public education.

Answer 6

You must obtain a temporary work permit and/or apply to become a permanent resident in order to live and work legally in Canada.
