You do not need an agency to go through the process to work in Canada. Moving this to the International forum and please take the time to read the threads we have ongoing about working in Canada all the information is there. Plus if I remember rightly CIC doesn't like to see stuff like this as they have everything you need information wise and forms on their website and I promise you having gone through the process myself it is easy to do and probably much cheaper than using a agancy.
Read this from the CIC website
You do not need to hire an immigration representative. It is up to you. The Government of Canada treats everyone equally, whether they use the services of a representative or not.
If you choose to hire a representative, your application will not be given special attention by the immigration officer. Your representative also cannot guarantee that your application will be approved.
All the forms and information that you need to apply for a visa are available for free on this website. If you follow the instructions in the application guide, you can complete the application forms and submit them on your own.

They cannot just send you there, you need to have a job and meet the requirements for Vancouver. And these agencies do not offer anything that you cannot do on your own, and if the agency is not actually listed with Canada on their approved list, then it will actually cause you more harm than good.
You still need to meet the same requirements and that is having passed the NLE as well as having paid nursing experience. Please take the time to do some reading on this here.
