any aussie nurses worked in canada??

[Ali&Tim]

Hi, my husband and I have started the process of applying for our BC registration. All the forms are in and we are waiting to be assessed. Has anyone had any experience with applying for canadian registration from australia? Any ideas how long it will take? Also, are we likely to get work in vancouver, me in oncology/BMT, Tim in Emergency. Some posts seem to suggest jobs are scarce, is this true? Also, are people going to want to employ us with just temporary registration before we've done the CRNE? How did the Aussies, NZ and brittish RN's find the CRNE, were realyy worried about it! Oh also did any aussies have to do extra paeds or maternity?:trout: Don't know what this picture is supposed to mean, but I like it!

Thanks a lot ali
