I'm currently trying to migrate from Germany to Canada. It appears to me that the job market in Canada is horrible at the moment.
I have 8YoE in Cloud and quite in demand in Germany(recently got a good offer, which i'm considering, from a German company purely because of my open source contributions, also passed HC in one of FAANGs, but stuck in team match phase due to layoffs). I sent 10s of applications(it's hard to send 100s as i'm highly specialized) and didn't get a single interview from that.
Speaking as a Canadian who has spent most of his adult working life outside of Canada, the Canadian job market for anything STEM has always been pretty poor.
