hired by a Canadian company. You could get a visitors pass. If you have
a passport you are allowed to stay for 6 months. During that time you
could job shop and work on getting your work visa.

You forgot Vancouver, which is a little like San Francisco with
mountains, from what I remember of it. Ottawa isn't THAT big. I get
claustrophobia when my family tries to talk me into moving back there.
Great for tulips in the spring and maples in the fall though. A pretty
place, if you are looking for a smallish city. Toronto has all of the
good and bad points of big cities -- vibrant nightlife, traffic, and
crime. Very flat tho, but moderate temperatures for Canada. Montreal is
a really great city in my opinion but if you move there you had best be
willing to learn to speak French.
Not sure how the job market is (I live in New Mexico) but judging by
what I saw when I googled around for someone else you really need to
find the job then emigrate. I am sure Dan can tell you more if you are
interested.
