Can anyone here help with information on converting a foreign Dispatch license to the Canadian Registry..Also how's the profession like in Canada?? Would appreciate any help.

There are two exams that you can complete free of charge at any Transport Canada Examination Centres. One on operations/navigation/regulations/flight planning and one on meteorology. Once you have the two exams completed with 70% or above, you can apply to airlines where they will then further train you. I'm not 100% sure but I think the dispatcher license is granted after you are employed and have completed company training. First step would be to to pass the two exams. Here's a link to the study guide:

I'd say that your foreign experience would be appreciated,
If you have experience, the exam will be a breeze.

But, odds are you will have to hand deliver your resume.
