Hi,

I hope its the right section to post this. I dont have a driving license from my country, never had one, never passed the test. Can i still get it in Canada if i go there to study? Or do i need to already have one from my country?

Cheers

Yes why not. But do not expect to get a license the very next day once you land.
You normally have to write a test post which you are given a license which allows you to learn the driving.
You learn with this license for some time (around a year) post which you give a road test and your license is upgraded.
There might be certain variations to this process across different provinces, but overall this is how things proceed.

Yes you can get it. First you have to clear written test in canada after that road test.
