What kind of qualifications are generally looked for when people apply to be an English teacher?

I'm Canadian and I taught a few years ago because I was lucky enough to have known someone who got me a job teaching. I don't have a bachelors degree - but I do have a 3 year DEC (something specific to Quebec, Canada that is between a trade school and University in American terms).

I've heard that nowadays they ask for anything from simply a bachelor's degree to only a TESOL/TOEFL.

So yeah - what's the criteria that most people get in on? Can you become a teacher with less?
