Doubt he’ll get on in a Federal jail as it’s dead man’s shoes, but shouldn’t be an issue in Provincial. There’s the one here and then the relatively new one in the Okanagan.

That is great news, many thanks for checking with your friend! We can switch my husbands license from a UK one to BC once we get there. He also needs to do his first aid again in BC. Just a couple things he can't do until we get there in person, but when we emailed the recruitment officer he said my husband can still apply and just be sure to sort those bits out once we get there. I have my fingers crossed for the new one in the Okanagan, but we will see! Thanks again
