The new grad jobs are going to former interns and some new grads right out of school. So given you are 6 months out I would recommend two opposite spectrum ideas:
\- Masters degree and try to do internships in the summer that could convert
\- Look for contract jobs, potentially lower paying that could be a foot in the door, check out startups in Toronto, to try to get a foot in the door.
\- Extension of past one, look for remote contract jobs with startups in the US. It's very easy to hire people legitimate through Deel/Rippling/Remote etc... so it's become easier for startups to hire (and cheaper because salaries are lower in Canada)
Big tech will be hard because of my first sentence, and with the tariff situation, I don't think big non-tech companies will be on a hiring spree for a while.

Again, the person is in Canada and things work different there.
