Expert Answer

You could message hedge funds on LinkedIn. First, look to see who they are investing in and then connect with them regarding the reasons you liked who they invested in. For example, if a hedge fund made a large investment in Tesla 10 years ago, you could send a message saying, “I noticed that you have a big position in Tesla. I really liked the stock because X, Y, Z.” Then you pitch your case that way. That is a nontraditional method.

You'll first need to obtain a work visa or work permit if you want to work in Canada as the citizen of another country. Then, look through online job-search websites to find finance positions similar to those you've had before.
