Whether you are coming from 3rd world country or 1st world (its like cancer) Canada dosen't discriminate. Your policing experience in London will be useless because that dosent count as Canadian work experience. Since policing laws in UK is different from policing laws in Canada it will be a challenge for you to find a ob in your field. You could do a police foundation course and upgrade your skills, while working at McDonalds, KFC or security guard at minimum wage. Once you have completed your course, you have to do volunteer job for a few months related to policing and community support , then if you are lucky they might decide to offer you a temporary or part time job with no benefits (being white obviously helps). After doing a temporary part time job for several years, depending if they are satisfied they might give you a full time contractual job, after doing the contractual job for a maybe 5 to 6 years they might make you permanent with all benefits. So you should be looking to invest about 10 to 15 years of your life.

Also Mark Carney is starting a new job there as the Governor of Bank of England, hopefully he'll fix up the British economy, Canada is far better than most countries when it comes to the economy

I'll agree to most of what newtone says. You can start as a security guard. You'll also need to attend school like he said. I'd suggest you go to Vancouver if you're colored instead of Toronto.
