Thanks Trauma Nurse and Jacala CL. To work across the border, was the processing of papers, fee (if any), and waiting time reasonable? Do you have plan to work (back) in Canada?

What is RPN? Is it the same as LPN? If you really want to pursue to get your BScN, go for it - you're still young. The program is four years now (in BC-Canada anyway). I'm midway of the program now, and actually cosidering to challenge LPN.

Thanks fergus51, canoehead, and epg-pei. Your comments are appreciated. Any ideas what could be changed to keep nurses in Canada? ______________ RN Student-NIC

I am a 2nd year nursing student in British Columbia. My concern is that so many nurses are leaving to work in the US (5,400 Ontario nurses). We are losing trained nurses and this may result in a worse shortage than we already have. How do you feel about this trend?
