Whaaat! Mine cost around €700 including pedals and shoes. Sounds like it'd be cheaper to fly here, buy one, and fly back (or cycle back).

It's not so much about the driving as it is about turning it into a apocalypse-survival camper-van.

You should just be able to exchange it. You'll be probably need a driver's abstract (and maybe proof of B.C. residence) but it's not like they're that hard to get. If Sam could exchange her Australian driver's license for an Ontario one, then I can't imagine it'd be harder between Canadian provinces.
tania:
the thing is that both ontario and british columbia have these really complicated graduated licensing systems, which are probably useful in that they keep terrible inexperienced drivers off the road but REALLY irritating in that they result in you having to take a billion tests and wait anywhere from 2-3 years to get a full license from the point that you take your first written test. as a result i ended up moving from ontario before i qualified to test for the full license so i don't know how my weird halfway-there license works out here but i suspect the answer is going to involve a lot more money and more tests and more waiting periods and oh god driving is the worst why do people even do this
JD:
Yeah you basically explained why I don't have a license of my own.
