I am 33 years of Age a Registered Nurse (Diploma) from India. I am a new Immigrant to Canada. I have worked for four years and stopped working for last some years because of family tie up and responsibilities. I would like to start working in canada again as a nurse. Please let me know how could I start off. Your Valuable discussions are all welcome.

Thanks again

there are other sites on the net for all the other provinces.

I need more information. Like have your held a Canadian license? If not, you will have to write the Canadian boards and that is not something to be taken lightly.

If you have held a CA license that makes things a lot easier.
