Sorry to hear about your struggles. Firstly, avoid any recruiting company that asks for an upfront payment. Sounds like a scam. Or they are a staffing firm that just places bodies on short or medium term contracts and is looking to make money from both sides. I am sure you can figure out a pay for performance model.
Secondly, it might be time to rethink or reposition your skill sets and experiences. In most organizations I have worked for or worked with, the first people who get impacted are PMs. You could write 101 bullet points on the value add that PMs bring (and I agree that great PMs bring a lot of value) but I have seen that there is a huge expectation that line managers simply absorb that role. Unfortunate but that’s the reality. My 2 cents.
There are a lot of people out there with PM experience or people management experience. in Canada, so that skill alone will be a hard sell. You will need some specialization to stand out. and I would suggest be open to individual contributor roles.
