Well I am not planning on getting a school degree or something in that direction, so I doubt I will be given a F-1 visa. I believe the Visa for receiving flight training is M-1, correct?

Here's EFT's (Florida) course: European Flight Training » APP | APP in Detail

They give you an option to stay with them for 1 year after training

Then there's Harv's air in Canada: Harv's Air > International flight students working in Canada after training in Canada

But then I receive a Transport Canada license, which isn't bad either.

The main thing that's keeping me from training in the States are the visa issues. Apparently it's easier to get a working visa for Canada for EU residents. I won't even need a visa for flight training in Canada if I stay shorter than 6 months.

Edit: That link looks interesting.
