Look at job sites (Indeed, etc.) with the keywords industrial or I/O psychology and that will give you a good idea of the types of jobs available.

In Canada much of this work is contracted out to counselling/clinical psychs.

yes but it's not guaranteed.

I would strongly consider contacting someone at the BC board with these specific questions based on the programs you're attending and see if they can provide any guidance for your case specifically. Especially if you want to do the MA. It wouldn't be a great feeling if the College viewed it as a North American MA and then you're unable to be licensed in BC.

I would say it's probably slightly easier to get into than a clinical program. However you still need a competitive application. Most people in my program had good grades and many had some applicable research and/or work-related experience. I'm not sure about transferring an MA in school psychology back to Canada, I would say that depends entirely on how the program is structured and on the requirements of provincial licensing boards. But I'd think an APA accredited PhD in school psych from the US in particular would be transferable across the boards. Keep in mind that if you are looking into US programs that school psychology there is very driven by special education law so there are differences between what a school psych looks like in the US and in Canada.
