In order to work in Canada, you need to find an employer in Canada who is willing to give you a job offer and also get an approved LMIA. Once your employer has an approved LMIA, you can then apply for a work permit. So the first step is to find an employer in Canada.

See information in the link below on what it takes to be allowed to work as a midwife in Ontario (each province has its own requirements). You will need to complete a one year program in Ontario before you'll be able to practice as a midwife. Your credentials on their own are not enough.

Is there any work available for me, like assistant of a midwife or lower than that ?
No. Information is in the link. Midwifery like nursing is a licensed profession. You need to be licensed to work. In Canada, midwives are not common so I don’t think they have assistants. Some women hire doulas but again you need the education. Most are self employed. You need to look at immigration programs (Express Entry) if you want to live and work in Canada.
