The answer to your first two questions is to call or log on to ACTRA's web site in Canada or SAG (Screen Actor's Guild) in America. They'll have a list of reputable agents in all provinces or states. You & your guardians can then pick one to see.

Does it cost anything? NO! they make their keep off of representing you and take no money at all from you until you get a part. The only exception to this rules is if they are a kids/teen agency only or Background Talent Agency. They can charge a small fee yearly to take you on. Why? They're allowed to because kids, teens, their parents and extras bail as soon as they see this is often an 18 hour a day gig.

Don't worry about the resume. You don't need one at this point and your agent is the one who gets you all the parts. Right now you won't get a principal agent. It's best to get a Background Talent Agent and get cast in TV shows, movies, series that need people for crowd scenes.
