Canadian Immigration Process (Family Class: Spouse)?

Posted December 23rd, 2011 by immigratecanada and filed in Immigration to Canada

My wife and child are canadian and I’m american. I’ve been considering applying under the “Family Class” to become a Permanent Resident. However the thought of being out of commission for 1-2 years while I wait for my PR card does not sit well with me. Being stuck doing nothing for 2 years would drive me insane.

I guess my question is:
Is there anyway I could get a temporary work visa while I wait for my PR card? Normally work visas are usually issued only to highly skilled workers; but my work experience is pretty plain. (ex:Retail, Sales, Customer Service, etc. etc.)
