I lived 25 plus years of my life in Pakistan where i spent my childhood and did my Bachelors and Masters in Business Administration from the Institute of Business Administration. I later on immigrated to Canada and finally got my Canadian Passport a year ago.
I am considering moving back to Pakistan. I just wanted feedback as to whether having a Canadian Passport will help me in any way, are there any specific jobs or field i can apply too where having a passport where i dont need any visa to travel to 150 plus countries in the world will be a significant advantage?

I doubt your passport will help you get into a field . It will ultimately be your experience and the job market you choose to be in that will be helpful.

If it's an international role that requires you travel, it might a little bit of a plus point. But as long as you have the required skills the color of your passport is not the deal breaker.
If you are considering to move to Dubai or other Middle Eastern places: Having a European/Canadian/American passport is a significant advantage in those places.

Passport isn't going to help you much there. The one thing that will help you the most is your Canadian experience and 2nd your English speaking/writing would be a big asset though. It would also help for sure to have a Canadian accent.
