You do not lneed to learn French to move to 80% of Canada. But if you get an RN, ans express willingness to live in a smaller community further north, then you might.

I would probably say "yes". Canada has a "Skilled Worker Program" and Quebec has its own equivalent version. You can take the test to try a self-assessment to see if you qualify. Just punch in the appropriate responses, such as saying you are a nurse and have french language skills, to see what type of score you would get. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/assess/index.asp According to Canada's website, Nursing is a job that is "in demand" in Canada and qualifies you for an accelerated immigration status. Of course, to become a nurse, you would have had to qualify from a certified program. You may want to consult with the Canadian embassy or consulate in your current country to see if a degree from a particular tech school would be acceptable in Canada.

It sounds very promising. There is a shortage of trained nurses in Canada, and with that skill, and the willingness to move to a rural or northern community, you would probably have no difficulty. And, after a few years, you would have experience, would have fulfilled your requirements and would be able to move to a metropolitan center. Or wherever you wished. You don't need to learn french - unless you want to work in Quebec.

In Canada , Quebec provinance is French Speaking area and also offer immigration to people and the pass marks to qualify as a immigrant for this provinance is less if compare with Federal Skilled Worker immigration. But if you want to go other provinances of Canada as a immigrant , so first of all you should find your profession/occuptions in the 38 list of occuptions, if your occuption is in the list then you can qualify for Federal skilled worker. Points are divided into different factors, e.g Education consists of maximum 25 points, if you got 25 points then there will be no chance of more points in this factor. So, for the degree in nurse give you points in education factor and if you are experianced then according to it points in jobs experiance sector. But one strong point for you is Language ability in French, from where you can obtain maximum 8 points in frecnh language rather then 16 points of English Language.
