Right now i have 5 years visitor visa of Canada and i just need to know can i find job and get job offer? I see there is a list in canada.ca showed eligible employer who could offer LMIA and although i saw their address and name but there is no website
I saw lawyer told me come to canada then we would change your visa to work permit are they saying correctly?

No - not correct. This is a scam. There's no job. They just take your money.

I saw in the canada.ca wrote if you find job offer who could offer you lmia and work permit you can change your visa ? Isn't it correct?

Yes - this is true. However it's next to impossible to find employers who are willing to go through the process. The LMIA process is long (4-6 months) and very expensive for the employer with no guarantee of approval. To be approved, an employer must also prove no Canadian could be found for the job.

One of the most common scams is lawyers/agents who say that if you to go Canada on a visitor visa they can quickly convert this to a work permit in exchange for a fee. This isn't how it works and as said above, it's next to impossible to find employers who are willing to go through the LMIA process. The lawyer you spoke to is trying to scam you.
