Traditionally, you could stay for three months but could not work. Some people have gone back across the border for a week and then returned. It is stricter now and they keep much better records on the computer. You must have a passport and if you have a criminal record or outstanding warrant for anything, even some stupid public drunkenness record from '92, they will still arraign you and refuse to let you crosss.
To immigrate, contact the U.S. Department of Immigration. You need to go through legal channels and get a green card. Usually, you need an offer of employment in order to get one.

They can stay however long the Immigration Services say they can stay - it would depend on what kind of a visa they are here on.

Read your bio and we don't want you here. Love isn't the answer to solving the worlds problems and being from Canada would make you a liberal who would vote for people that would raise taxes on those of us who still work and pay taxes just to have it taken from us to give to those who won't work because the gov. will give them money to not work. Try France, Italy, Germany Cuba, Venezuela, or some other socialist country.
