Hi, sim fan here. I'm curious about turning my sim skills into real life racing skills. How do I do so? I live in Hamilton.

Welcome!

First step is to get yourself a semi-decent PC and some peripherals. What have you got so far, and whats your budget?

After you have that setup there is a good variety of sims to choose from. We mainly race rFactor 2 here, which is normally around $40, but quite often they have sales as well.

EDIT: Sorry I might have misread your first post! If your looking at getting into real life racing, your best bet is to get into a entry level class, like 2K Cup, or Gymkhana's. See your local track, I believe Hampton Downs would be the closest to you in Hamilton. They might have their own club classes they run on their club/track days that could be a good entry level to get involved at as well.
