Each province has their own license, just like each state in the US.

Graduate nurse licenses or permits are for those that have not written the licensing exam, but as an RN wishing to get a visa to go to Canada, it is hard to be considered for a visa if you have not written the exam.

If you have already passed CRNE then yes there is something like endorsing in the US but you still have to meet the province's requirements and if they feel you have to do a course or program then they will not issue a license until it has been done.
