I want to immigrate the the USA from Canada but…

I want to immigrate to the USA from Canada, but I don’t have many skills and I don’t have a degree. I have always wanted to work in law enforcement in the U.S. but I am unsure if experience in the police force here would suffice in getting a job offer in the U.S. I want to know if I could immigrate to the U.S. before getting a job here to gain experience.

no, you need to have a degree in order to qualify for a work visa in the US.  unless you immigrate to the US through a family-based petition, such as through marriage or relatives who are US citizens, it will most likely not be possible for you without first obtaining a degree.
