[jcbnmr1979]

So what is the hiring process at a place like this? Do they hire Americans? Is there a special process that non-canadians have to go through to work in Canada?

[of course]

Yes, they hire Americans. Check out the discussion regarding "our neighbors to the north" under the Miscellaneous section of this board.

[Canada]

Canadian universities like U of Toronto and UBC do not apply the "Canadian first" policy very strictly. Look at the faculty listing--they hire Americans and other international scholars all the time. Once hired, they start the green card process right away, so many become Canadian permanent residents and/or dual citizens.
