If I am a Canadian citizen but I don’t have a computer science degree, is my only option to get H1-B?

And can I remotely work for a US company from Canada, given they don’t have a Canadian office, and I would be paid to a US bank account. Would I still need a visa in this case?

Question 1: No, there are a few TN occupations that don't require a degree and the O-1 doesn't require a degree. Question 2: No, you would not need a visa; U.S. immigration doesn't reach beyond the borders of the U.S.
