No, both GRE and IELTS are not required to work in Canada. The intent of both exams are different. GRE is a standardized test for getting admission to MS or MBA programme abroad. 

Yes, IELTS is required to work in Canada. IELTS General Training is the correct test type for immigration/work purposes.

Yes, IELTS is required for Canada Permanent Residency (PR), if you are applying through Express entry or PNP. However, IELTS is not the only exam for this.  TCF Canada, PTE Core, and CELPIP general are some good alternatives of IELTS exam for Canadian PR.
