that's what my husband plans to do. he's an electrical engineer with 5 years experience.
what you need to do is find the regulating body for Electrical Engineers or Electricians in the province you intend to settle in. Try this link
http://www.credentials.gc.ca/
and click on "Working in Canada Tool" on the left side. just follow instructions and you will get the info you need.
we intend to settle in Saskatchewan, to be recognized as an Electrician or Electrical Engineer there you need to submit your transcript of records from University together with a course syllabus/description. You can have that assessed to see if it meets Canadian standards for education of electricians.
as for your previous work experience, you need to secure from your previous job a certification where your inclusive dates of employment are indicates as well as a detailed job description. you can also have this asssessed if this can be considered equivalent to an apprenticeship.
i guess it's basically the same across all provinces, keep in mind that engineering jobs and electrician jobs are regulated in most provinces so you need to take an exam to be certified. There's also what they call Interprovincial Red Seal Journeyman Certification, you can take the test for this after you have passed at the provincial level. If you have this you can work at any province of your choosing as an Electrician.
