Since you don't have a degree and from your posting it sounds like you do not qualify for a TN visa. Your other option may be an H1 visa. An H1 visa, as Reba indicated can cost thousands of dollars. This visa will need to be sponsored by an employer.

Many employers will sponsor this visa for high valued jobs where the cost justifies the value you will bring to them. Given the current economy there are many Americans looking for a job (due to layoffs from the real estate/mortgage industry) and so it may be tougher to get hired.

You still have not stated what type of job you would be looking for.

All I know is, I've spoken to a lot of Canadians lately who've moved from the US to Alberta because the job market is way better here.

If you've got a pulse and most of your limbs, we need you. I wish I was joking. Read this.

And please don't think this means we only need people to work on the bitumen conveyor from Fort McMurray to Fort Saskatchewan. We need EVERYBODY. Accountants, medical staff, civil engineers, construction workers, bus drivers, people to work in shops, you name it.

Look at this: www.crossironmills.com - who the hell is going to staff it?
