I am looking around also (in the GTA, Ontario area). I have been reading The Unwritten Rules of the Highly Effective Job Search by Orville Pierson. An excellent reference for planning your search. One of his main points is that sending out resumes only works 25% of the time. Most people get jobs through a contact. If you can afford to slow down your search I highly recommend reading the book. It has focused me.
