It is not so straightforward. This relates to ordinary car licences:

If you are moving from the UK to Canada to live, you should be aware that each Province/Territory issues its own Driving Licence. If you are moving to live in Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec, Newfoundland and Labrador, you will be able to exchange a UK licence issued by the DVLA for one issued by these Provinces. Drivers must have proof of at least 24 months of licensed driving experience.

Negotiations are continuing with the remaining Provinces/Territories. If you take up residence in any of these Provinces/Territories, you will be required to take a written test and a practical road test. Some Provinces operate a graduated driving licence system and it can take up to two years to obtain a full licence. UK Driving Licences issued by DVLANI (Northern Ireland) are not currently included in these reciprocal arrangements.

I suggest you contact the FCO for advice:
