Part of their background check involves the RCMP checking in with their home country. They have a bit more of an uphill battle getting their license depending on where they’re from to be honest. I’ve heard Chinese citizens have a particularly hard time.
Oh... that's strange actually...... I mean getting international proof of good conduct was finicky with notaries and stuff but it's wasn't particularly hard, per se. I received mine about 1 month after application. Probably they checked my background and it just says "sweet summer child" or something... I really don't know. Like, I heard about even Canadian citizens having their application submitted multiple-years-and-counting ago and I'm honestly really surprised that I got mine that quick.
P.S. And in case it wasn't clear, I'm Chinese, which made it all the weirder too.
