Canada Immigration & H1b

Anyone has first or second hand experience following through with Canadian Immigration while on H1b status?

1) If an alien worker is on a H1b status with Labor certification pending, does his/her H1b status (ie I-797 etc paperwork) need to be "reissued" if he lands/immigrates to Canada as a permanent resident and then (assuming its possible) attemps to stamp a H1b Visa from a canadian consulate in order to return back to work back in the US?

2) I am also assuming the labor cert process will not be affected - is that a wrong assumption?

3)Is the H1b visa status annulled upon landing in Canada as an immigrant/
permanent resident? The passport is held from the nation of birth throughout the ordeal. What are the risks involved with concurrently processing immigration both in the US and in Canada?

Thanks in advance for your reply.
