IF I WERE TO LOOK FOR TARSAND JOB #1.What kind of taxes have to be paid by a Unitedstadian ( A GUY FROM USA) working on the tarsands of Alberta? #2 What else do I need to consider as I look into these kinds of Jobs?

Sorry to hear it's not working out Zeke. I hate to see that happen to someone spending years making a go of it in business.

If you work and get paid in Canada you will pay Canadian federal and provincial income taxes. Here's a link to a tax calculator.

Here is a link to the IRS regarding their treatment of such.

Good luck to you no matter where life takes you.
