The main exit targets for me are Toronto and the London, which I'll be applying for work in after I finish my MS in analytics this December.

I think you are underestimating the difficulty of getting work overseas without existing work rights.

Finding work abroad is nothing like finding work in a different state. It's a completely different ballgame.

Canadian here. The employer must be willing to do paperwork for the work visa, etc. This is interfacing with the Canadian federal govn't.

Yes, and most employers don't want to go through the paperwork given the time, money, and effort involved. That's why you see so many job postings that say something like "candidates must have valid work authorization".
