Since you already hold 美国注册护士执照, you just need to apply to one of the Canadian provincial nurses colleges, get evaluated, sit the Canadian national nurse exam (except in Quebec), and finally get the canadian RN diploma. When all this is done, you can find job wherever you want.
don't worry, the nurse job prospect is still good in Canada.
By the way, what is your hourly pay in US? Here in Canada, the entry-level nurse pay is around 20, the highest pay for senior nurses is around 30-35.

能找到。The center of Newcomers 就提供免费护理工作的培训，但是是护理，不是注册护士，是针对英语程度比较低的新移民提供的培训。注册护士请上www.alis.gov.ab看需求情况和工资情况，是官方政府网站。可以上Bow Valley网上看注册护士的入学要求。www.bowvalleycollege.ca http://www.bowvalleycollege.ca/directions.htm

Right now in Ontario unionized RNs start from 28.5$/hr (full time=1950hrs/annum), and RNs with 9 years of experience are getting 40.5$/hr. If you work on shifts you would receive around 1~1.5$ more/hr for premium.
In the US RNs make about 65k on average, which is lower than the 75k in Canada. However since there's a much bigger income gap between the states down south, RNs who work in rich places like California would be expecting around 40$ (not too sure about that but I doubt they can make 45$+ on average though). But you have to keep in mind that places like California are very expensive to live.
