Immigration Canada lets foreign LLM students stay for a short while after their degree to get some brief work experience in Canada, but the LLM does not confer a right to remain. That said, you can make contacts during your study which may lead to a long-term job offer, which can form the basis for your eventual admission as a landed immigrant or permanent resident.

Teaching positions are scarce in Canadian law schools unless you are willing to work for very low pay as a part-time or contract instructor. Most people applying now for law teaching positions now have an S.J.D. or Ph.D. in law.
