1. Applying for work permits/visas as a Canadian looking to work in the U.S.:
Canadians have some specific options under the USMCA (NAFTA) agreement for temporary work status.
One option is to apply for a work permit directly at the U.S. port of entry/inspection point in Canada, rather than going through a lengthy application process.
Having all the necessary documents prepared and potentially having someone licensed to assist you can make this port of entry application process smoother.

2. Transitioning from a work permit to permanent residency:
The speaker cautions against misleading information about using an E-2 visa to then apply for EB-5 permanent residency. These are separate processes.
The speaker suggests the L-1 visa category may be a better option to eventually apply for permanent residency through the EB-1C process.

3. Overall, the speaker is providing advice based on their own experience navigating the U.S. immigration system as a Canadian applicant, rather than as a licensed immigration expert.
