Yep this is very possible as well, i wasnt going to post it because i dont think this industry ties in with construction workers etc..
They have a seperate visa, either the B1 or L1 that is just for that stuff, because alot of the time americans have demand for canadian trade professionals, it's temporary and cant get you a greencard.
What everyone wants is the H series visa's, lots of competition, mainly cause they can turn into greencards after a few years.
