Have you considered Transport Canada, the Transportation Development Centre or the Transportation Safety Board. I know of one guy who used to be with TC in the civil aviation safety standards department who moved to the TSB in the last 12 month or so. As far as I know, his desk at TC has not been filled.
A staff directory is on the internet, so you can choose who you send a CV to.
Other than that, DRDC sometimes hires. NavCanada is not hiring (as far as I know), nor are any of the airlines. There are a few flight training schools who might be interested in your CRM background. As for consultancies - where are you?
Hope this helps (and I hope you've already done the work permit thing... nightmare!
).
