Each province is different, you apply for college of nurses of the province you are interested in.
One thing puzzles me is that LPN in Canada is mostly 2-year program. I heard Ontario only accepts 2-year LPN school graduates, but I am not sure, it might not be true. As we all know LPN takes one year in US, it is possible your LPN credentials is not accepted there.
You can also look at Nova Sciota, it has one-year LPN school, so I assume US LPN education will be accepeted there. The problem is that this province is far from US, not convienent to work if you need to visit your home in the States often.
