Looks like you are pretty determined so my blessing is with you. However, the chances of u getting into the AE program straight out of your flying course is pretty slim, expect to gain a lot more flying hours than your 200 something you get out of the 1 year course, if you even get that, before you are considered for the AE course.
As for working in Canada, again, if you have saved up billions and don't need to work ever again for the rest of your life, not a bad choice. However, expect to having to start low (ramp, loader, dispatch) somewhere up into the freezing north for couple years before you even get a chance to touch any sort of flight control on a big plane, and I ain't even talking about big shinny jets. You sure you wanna freeze your behind off breaking your back at age 45? If so, by all means, go for it.
