3. Without a degree, is it hard to get a good job in Canada?
1. Um, if I understand your question, the answer is no. First thing you normally have to do is to qualify for a visa.

You say that's what your wife is currently doing for the US. Going elsewhere may complicate her request for US residence. But in any event, getting a visa for Canada or Mexico (or anywhere else) will depend on lots of things - like what each of you are qualified to do, where she is from, and on what basis you are planning to move (job, studies, permanent resident, etc.).

2. Can't help you there.

3. What you need is a good qualification for a job that is in demand in Canada. This can be a college degree or a training program, preferably with some experience. Like in the US, demand for jobs can depend on where you are going - what's in demand in BC (British Columbia) may not be so in demand in Quebec or Newfoundland.
Cheers,
Bev
