I second what bcrdukes said about employment. I used to live/work in the US as well, and have been through the hurdles to get a work visa. Fortunately, my company hired/paid for an immigration lawyer to make it work.
Like bcrdukes said, you'll need to have the company sponsorship already done before you even consider crossing the border and telling them you're going over for work. If you tell them that at the border without supporting documents, they're going to turn you around. As for a sponsoring company's responsibilities, they'll need to prove there's nobody in the US that can fulfil the job that they are hiring you for as they don't take too kindly to foreigners stealing their jobs.
You'll also need to consider tax implications if you have assets in Canada as well that you aren't planning to dispose of when you go down. (just something else to think about)
