Makes you wonder why companies bother asking questions about disability in their forms or they don't consider clinical depression a disability. Either way it's ridiculous.
How do I make my Canadian dream a reality?

You're right but I don't think you can depend on the stock market to make a living unless you're ok becoming destitute if the market crashes.
You definitely can make living out of trading stocks. There are tons of successful stock brokers who earned millions of dollars, but like I said it is not easy and you should have good amount of money to begin with. There are tons of books that can help you to understand Stock market.
There's no middle ground in the stock market that's why most people don't see it as a stable source of income otherwise everyone would quit their 9-5 and do stock trading.
If you cannot afford to loose money trading stocks is not for you period. I have been telling you need money, like good amount of money to start off. We all are trying our best to help you, take it in a positive way instead of contradicting every post.
To give some examples, you would need to invest 77K$ about 10 years ago into Apple to become a millionaire today and you would need to invest around 50-60k into Tesla to see your invests go above 300K.
Disabled people get hired because they can get the job done although they may need some modifications to do the work. Employers won't employ disabled people if they can only do 50% of the job.
To add, companies also ask because they are required to reasonably accommodate people with disabilities, key word being REASONABLE. i am unsure how any doctor can justify clinical depression being the reason why a person cannot perform physical labour. I saw people with down syndrome working for Cineplex, people in wheelchairs working for Apple, etc. i am no doctor but i would think their disabilities are atleast equally debilitating as someone with clinical depression. Point being, they were able to gain employment as disabled people.
Are you a skilled immigrant? If you are, then even if you are in perfect health and strong as an ox, you should ask yourself, do you want to go to Canada to become a rickshaw? Why would anyone who is skilled enough to work white collared job ever want to carry bricks or load trucks in the warehouse?
I were in your place: I had Canadian PR visa and landed in Canada as PR. After months of futile attempts to land an interview (forget about a job!), I made a U-Turn and said to Canada it can bring all the rickshaws in the world to its' shores, but I won't be one of them. Canada is a beautiful country if you go there as a tourist, but it's not the right place to start up a life. You need insider connections to even get a job of garbage collector. Everything depends on behind the scene "networking", which to me is a big red flag: it's a highly corrupt place where you can thrive only if you have the same corrupt mind set. Or , you have to be extremely desperate (like running away from war thorn country, escaping death and etc.), then it makes sense to go and work as a rickshaw for few years before you can find some other country to safely immigrate to.
This is a spam post and advertisement of a very bad habit (as if someone was advertising binge drinking).
Things must be beyond desperate in Canada, for someone to play in casino as means to earn a living. No human will ever win against casino, the odds are mathematically so set up as to make house earn all the money in the end.
I am one of the strongest advocates of free speech. I firmly believe that anyone has inalienable right to express their opinion, no matter how disagreeable it is to the others. As long as there is no personal attack and/or harassment, any opinion has a right to be heard.
But this is not an expression of alternative opinion. This is promotion of very bad habit, that ruins people's lives. While casinos are legal, have a right to exist and are allowed to advertise in relevant media, this forum isn't the place for it. Especially knowing how vulnerable some newcomers are, who could be lured and destroyed by spending the remnants of their savings in a false hope to earn a living.
