I have a full time job. I have a valid work permit. And I live in Canada. Do I need to show approx. $10,000 funding for landing at the Seattle port of entry?

Or it would be okay I show them my employment letter, pay stubs and valid work permit?

Thank you in advance for your opinion.

With a valid work permit you don't require proof of funds.

My case is a slight variant of the above -

I am an Indian, working in the USA. I got my PR recently and also a approved job offer in Canada. I will be landing in Canada soon.
Someone told me that Proof of funds can be in the form of "an original bank statement (like a regular account summary) showing funds is sufficient proof, provided that it is recent and up-to-date."
The question that I have is that, can the proof of funds at the time of landing be in the form of Bank Statements from USA and India? Since I would be having a job offer, I would like to carry only a small amount of money and not the entire money that is required as per the requirements.

With an approved AEO you don't require proof of funds, but to cover yourself the US bank statement is fine, the Indian one not so good as the funds are difficult to access or convert.
