Any info on how a Canadian ATPL holder could obtain an ICAO licence?

ICAO don't issue licenses, so there's no such thing.

There are "ICAO compliant licenses", but no "ICAO licenses". Canada is a signatoray to the Chicago Convention and an ICAO member state. Therefore what you have is a Canadian ICAO-compliant ATPL.

If you with to convert your license to that of another state, it is the rules of that state to which you must refer.

Actually it isn't, since there is no such thing as an ICAO licence. It is a licence issued by an ICAO contracting state.

For more information, you can get it from the "horses mouth" (http://www.icao.int/icao/en/trivia/peltrgFAQ.htm#11)
