Specializes in Medical and general practice now LTC.

NCLEX is for the USA and CRNE is for Canada

Working in Canada just became harder as nurses have been taken off the federal skilled list as not in short supply anymore within Canada.

You need to graduate then apply to the provincial college of RN and once eligibility to sit CRNE look for employers willing to wait for you overseas whilst going through the process of getting a temp work permit. You will also need Academic English (generally for the college of RN) and General English for immigration (IELTS)

Alberta Health Services laid off 40 senior nurses yesterday. Things are getting ugly here.

How about Quebec?

Are you fluent in French/medical French?

No. Do I need to study French if I am very fluent in English?

If not fluent in French when you register with Quebec you will be required to sit and pass a French exam within a certain period of time

Actually, I believe ALL nurses who register in Quebec have to prove their fluency in French. Quebec is a Distinct Society, you know. The testing is even more rigorous than the IELTS academic.

Yes. You need to pass a French exam in order to work in Quebec.I have heard it is very difficult.
