There are many threads in the nurse registration forum. For Australia, start with the professional licensing board APHRA. There is no demand for new grad/inexperienced nurses. There are few jobs for non citizen/non PR nurses as priority is given to citizen & PR nurses. You must also be proficient in English speaking/reading/ writing/understanding as evidenced by an overall band score of 7 in IELTS
Nursing is no longer on the skilled
shortage list for Canada therefor it is more deficit to secure sponsorship or work visa. You start with the College of Nurses for the province where you wish to settle/ live/work and review the licensing requirements

You need to figure out where you WANT to live. The lifestyles are very different.
