Welcome to AN! The largest online nursing community!

moved to nursing in Canada for best response

Moved to nurse registration. Are you fluent in French?

LPNs in Quebec report to the Ordre des Infirmiers et Infirmieres Auxiliaires de Quebec (OIIAQ).

Their website is found here : Order - Ordre des infirmières et infirmiers auxiliaires du Québec - OIIAQ

And as mentioned by JustBeachy, you do need to be able to prove a functional level of French to work in Quebec, even if you are lucky enough to find a job in one of our "anglo" hospitals in Mtl.

Currently working on the French though not fluent yet, I read in a few places that you have 3yrs to become fluent

You also haven't mention what visa are you going to use?

What visa were you planning on coming on? LPN will not qualify you for a work visa.

Was planning on getting aaa work visa

You would need a BSN for that.
