Need expert advice on below options and their feasibility , plz suggest if anything better available

1. Ask my previous company X to provide the letter of engagement for i485 . What are the probability of getting the letter? Since its for future employment

1. In case #1 is happy path(got the letter)
   1. Transfer to US with current Canadian company Y via TN visa . File i485, AOS wait for EAD . Is it feasible?
   2. Bottle Neck
      1. Seems like Y are not a good fan of filling any labor. (Last 2 yrs 11 h1b and 2 GC) , so H1B and fresh i140 looks dim.
2. Stay in Canada file for i485 and file CP. Is it feasible?

1. In Case #1 not happen and company doesn't give the letter.
   1. Rejoin Company X move to US in TN visa and file the i485 , AOS . Need feasibility and Time?
   2. Since i140 is already approved can I file H1B without CAP? .And Can I join any Company XYZ and go for fresh perm and 140 utilizing current PD. Need time to get EAD?
