Indian pilot looking to settle in Canada

Hello everyone,
First of all, my profile is as follows.
TT - 2500 Hrs.
Indian (ICAO) ATPL
with multi engine IR obtained this year.
FAA CPL with multi engine IR obtained in 2007
Currently flying for the Military and leaving in Dec 2019.

My wife is a Canadian PR holder in Toronto and after I leave my current service I intend to come up to Canada and convert my licence and find a job. As you can see from my profile it has been a long time since I was in the States. I checked the regulations and am aware of the exams to be given for conversion of licence. Now, is it easier to convert the FAA CPL to Canadian CPL/ATPL or from Indian ATPL to TC ATPL?
Also,what is the current job scenario for a pilot with my hours and military experience?
I plan to visit Canada In June to do the ground research but at the same time help here would be highly appreciated.
Thanks.
