Arranged Employment Opinion AEO) is a valid way to immigrate also - be advised though - an AEO is an "indeterminate job offer". You are under no obligation to accept the job when you arrive in Canada; and the employer sponsoring the AEO is under no obligation to hire you when you arrive.
It is consistent with Canadian Law - a company can withdraw a job offer until you arrive for work, and they accept you as an employee. If you are looking for a guaranteed job, then that would involve a contract, and result in a Work Permit - not Permanent Residency.
