Default Converting US ATPL to Canadian ATPL

Hey all, I'm just curious to see if anyone on here knows how, or where to have this done. Also, would a Canadian airline take on a person with a US ATPL and convert the licence in a checkride? Thanks.

Go to transport Canadas website. You have to take 2 written tests and get a Canadian medical and whammo you got it. The kicker is that you must have the legal right to work in Canada in order to transfer or get on with a canadian company.

How would someone apply, or go about obtaining the legal right to work in Canada?

Double check with your Mom. If she is Canadian you can do it that way. That is how I got my CA citizenship. I picked a Canadian mother. LOL
