If we do it, my partner would sponsor me for immigration. Otherwise, it should be possible to get express entry and provisional licensure, but my hope is to not do the full work grind if avoidable, and that would require a sponsor for immigration as well as for the licensure.

I visited Vancouver Island in the 2000s, it's a really nice place. Unfortunately, it's also a bit far for getting to Alberta and her family frequently, but BC isn't off the map in terms of an ultimate retirement location if we don't weather the peculiar problems in the states.
