For work with accommodations, it is quite likely that you're going to have the best chances of finding that if you're looking in the hospitality and tourism industry.

You can start by asking around at hotels, hostels, guest houses, motels, etc. Since they are in the business of providing accommodations, they might be very interested in having you work for them and either provide free accommodations or at the very least reduced rate accommodations which they would deduct from your pay.

Worth thinking about, and costs nothing but your time to ask around.

Cheers,
James

@Gam, unfortunately Vietnam is not in the list of countries that Canada allows for its nationals to come to Canada with a work and travel visa.

Here's the link of countries that are accepted. Magda83 who's from Poland is fortunate to have Poland in that list.

Know this, there is a difference between a "work and travel" visa and just a work visa.
