Can I do direct post-graduation in Canada since I have already completed my bachelor's?

Yes, you can apply for post-graduate studies in Canada after completing your bachelor's degree.
With your four-year Computer Science degree and an 8.0 CGPA, you are eligible for both Master's programs and Post-Graduate Diplomas in Canada. Each program will have its own specific admission requirements, such as minimum GPA, English language proficiency (like IELTS or TOEFL), and supporting documents.
Both program types typically make you eligible for a post-study work visa (PGWP) if the program duration is at least 8 months.
