Alberta Driving
If you initially arrive in Alberta on a temporary work permit and apply for PR from within Alberta, how long can you drive on an international driving license?

I have found this, which might help. Not had a chance to look too closely, but the answer might well be in there somewhere...

International driver's permit, allows you to drive for a year, even here in Ontario, but you have to be armed with your original licence at all times too. Really worth the £12 from AA !

Although if you don't pass the Alberta test you'll get hammered in insurance.

Re: Alberta Driving
Get an Alberta license. It is easy to get and will be useful for many reasons as a Canadian issued ID.
