Like almost all other countries, Canada will require you to convert your FAA license to a Canadian one. The exams, and flight tests will be similar, except we don't have a book with all the expected questions in it. Most flight schools will offer groundschool that will teach you what you need to know.
One word to you, Canada's aviation industry is significantly smaller than the US'. So if you don't have a lot of experience, you may find it very hard to get a job here. That's assuming that you've gotten past immigration, and have the right to work and live in Canada.
Cheers

Medical is pretty much the same. 30 minutes. If you can see litning and hear thunder - you are good to go. The only problem is after initial medical they mail you the certificate in about 1.5 - 2 months. U can't go for written without medical certificate... So, go for your medical ASAP.

ha ha, ok, we have...let me see; BA, (which is huge) Virgin and British Midland which are international. Then there's Monarch and Britania which are charter. Also we have Easyjet and Ryanair which are Low Cost Carriers. Then of course we have the charters and GA. Not as large as the USA but then its still quite big. I would imagine Canada has the same size, bigger country but less dense population?
