I mean, can Canadian writers go to any Commonwealth country and work
without a visa, whether or not they have a full time or part time or
contract job to go to. Could I for instance go to Australia and look for
a job, land one and not worry about pesky visa work documents?
I know I can ask Immigration Canada all these questions but I wanted to
hear quickly first from those who might have experience with these
issues.

Does that mean tw'ers from Canada can work freelance? Or own
their own
companies? Take on Contracts?
