Hunting And Fishing Guide

Can an American buy land and start a business on it in Canada?
My cousins and I would like to buy a chunk of forested land in Canada (probably Alberta or Saskatchewan) and build a cabin which we will rent out for hunting/fishing/wilderness getaways. We want to spend big game season there and do guided hunts. Anyone know if Americans are able to do that? Thanks.
In response to the first answer: Could we just rent it out to try and make back our initial investment? Maybe if business was conducted from the US through an American website?
Actually, the land will probably be in Ontario if that helps with answers at all.
And now for the facts.
Yes an American citizen can buy land in Canada, that happens all the time.
BUT, in order to be able to legally start a business in Canada, you MUST apply and be accepted as an immigrant, by the Canadian Government. That process will take 2 to 3 years, and there is no guarantee that you will be approved.
In order to be accepted, you need to have EITHER a University degree, AND some years of actual working experience in your field of education, OR be a certified tradesman in a technical or construction skill , such as a plumber, auto mechanic, or welder. The Canadian Government is looking for the best immigrants, and it is a competition, not a lottery. You will need a clear criminal record , from the FBI, a clear medical examination and chest x rays, and blood tests. and no bankruptcies in your past credit record. A minimum of 25,000 dollars to support your self for the first year that you live in Canada.
You will have to pay income taxes in Canada, on any money that you earn here, as well as having to file US income tax returns, every year that you live outside the US. The US is the only country in the world that expects it’s own citizens to pay taxes, even if they live some where else in the world.
Not as easy as you first thought, is it ??
