You will have to have a medical from a Canadian doctor so i would wait until you get here. This applies to NS at least as there is a special form that the doc has to fill in. It will be cheaper here as well, although i can't remember what mine cost.

Saskatchewan SGI accepted my UK medical for the initial licence and then again for my first renewal in Oct last year (you have to renew your CDL every year at the end of your birth month, in saskatchewan at least, don't know about other provinces). I took my drug test in Canada, paid for by the company, both times.
I'd check with the province you're going to. Things change all the time.
