Default Driving License Exchange

Hi All,

If i was to get a job in Edmonton for a few months, i know i can exchange my UK license for a Canadian one...

First question - what documents will i need to exchange my license?

When i finish the job and go back to BC after 3-4 months, can i continue to use my license in BC or will i need to exchange it for a BC one OR retake my driving test?

Just trying to work out what to do...

Thanks,

MR79

Proof that you are a legal resident (TWP, COPR, etc) and proof that you reside in Alberta (rental agreement, proof of purchase of house, etc.)
