Question Moving to Canada, is it possible?

Hi everyone, this is my first time on this forum and I am hoping someone can clarify a couple of things for me. I have read through a number of threads here and looked at a number of other sites regarding moving to Canada.
After 30 years as a nurse my wifes registration has now lapsed and my previous profession would not be on the required list so that route is a non runner.
I saw on a site it was possible to live in Canada on the basis you would either start a business or purchase one providing you employ at least one Canadian resident. My questions are:

Could we for example buy say a B & B ?

If so, do we still need to invest money and if so, would the purchase of the property from which we would operate the business be included?

Is there a mimimum amount needed to invest to purchase a small business?

We are UK passport holders but currently live in Brazil.

Any help here would be greatly appreciated.
