You won't be able to work in orthopaedics without going through a multi-year education and residency process. This is difficult to do and if you come to Canada, you should be prepared for the possibility it may be quite difficult to work in your field.
Chances of you working in Canada in orthopaedics is low as you need to complete residency. Have you completed an ECA from the Medical Council of Canada. If so, what is your Canadian equivalency. You need MCC to complete your assessment. Also what are your IELTS scores? You need ECA and IELTS to submit a profile.
Still doesn’t allow you to practice in the UK. You really need to research whether you would ever work as a doctor in Canada. And you still need to be invited to immigrate to Canada through Express Entry.
