Aussie bush pilots in Canada

I've tried the search function but can't find the info I'm after so at the risk of upsetting the regulars here goes again. I'm particularly interested in replies from Canadian operators or Aussie expats that work seasonally in Canada -
1. Is there a market for Australian bush pilots in Canada?
2. Which school in Canada has the best reputation in the industry for this type of training (I need a turbine end. & licence conversion)?

I have approx 2500 hrs made up of mustering, Ag 2, firelighting, sling, powerlines etc mostly R22 & R44 - no turbine time. The call of the wild wakes me up at night & Canada has a pretty loud call!

I've done the research on visas, licence conversions, airfares etc so I'm just after a few finer details. Standing by.
