i think it's only possible if you're already in Canda, unless you are applying for student visa then you can find a University that will accomodate you.

Re: Nursing registration, since you are already a nurse in your home country, you just have to apply for assessment in the Ontario College of Nursing.. then wait for their response. You will either be required of a bridging program or will allow you to take CRNE right away. After passing your CRNE, you can practice as a nurse. In some provinces, like saskatchewan and alberta, you can temporarily work as a nurse if you are given an eligibility (meaning you you pass the assessment and you are allowed to take the CRNE)... im not so sure abbout nursing in toronto...
