If you want to work in Canada as a foreigner, the company who wants to hire you, needs to give you a work permit. It will last a little more than the duration of your contract.
Once I had that and my contract back in Mexico, I arrived to the airport here in Canada and I went through the immigration office in the airport. There, they printed out my work permit.

The work permit can be closed or opened. 

When it's closed, you can only work for one company, open, you can work for more than one. A benefit of the closed one is that you get health insurance. When you have one year or two years living in Canada, depending on your nationality, You can apply for a permanent residency.

The permanent residency makes life easier for you, Because you can live in Canada without getting deported when your contract ends. And finally after some years of working in the country, you can apply for a citizenship.

HUGE TIP 

If you don't find a job in Canada, You can apply for a permanent residence from your country of origin! Without a job invite That's right! You can get this sometimes even in less than a year. Go to an immigration agency and ask for this modalities in your country. This benefits not only you, but also your espouse and children.

There are different relations between Canada and other countries so that may make it easier or harder for you to get a work permit. England, US, Mexico have it easier.
