Yes, you can transfer to a another college or university without getting a new study permit. Except Quebec.

1. Because you need a CAQ to study in Quebec.
2. As to brownching. From: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/study/study-arriving.asp

Understanding the terms and conditions of your study permit

The conditions listed on your permit tell you:
at which institution you can study
if you are allowed to work in Canada
whether you need to report for a medical examination, observation or treatment
if your travel within Canada is restricted and
when you must leave Canada.

If you wish to change any of the terms and conditions on your study permit, you must submit a completed Application to Change Conditions or Extend Your Stay in Canada.
If you are a post-secondary student with a valid study permit, you do not need to submit an application if you want to change your program of study or the institution where you are studying.
