Yes I believe that it will be accepted. The 4 year degree awarded is an Honours Degree. But I don't think you will have a problem using a 3 year degree from UK. I'm thinking you will have to take GMAT which is a graduate admissions test.

Everytime I read the alumini magazine, graduates working in UK, OZ, States, Singapore etc.
Do you know that Singapore's current  Auditor General is a Canadian graduate?? My late grandma was kept in a nursing home in Singapore. One of the doctor there that treated her got his medical degree from Canada

Oh I forgot to mention the weather in Hogtown sucks. A blizzard can shuts down the city for a day or two. During summertime smog and my goodness the humidity
The downside to studying in Canada is strict  limitation on foreign students on various programs. Medicine and Dentistry are off limits to foreign students. Business and Engineering have limited places for foreign students

Erm, I see those drawbacks which you mention are quite significant. I heard that Canada looking for engineers and IT experts in the recent years. IF so, why do they still limits palces for foreign students? what programs are you referring to which only limited to locals ? can you list out some of it ? ..
Also, does canadians practice racism ? ..

i got my degree from a local Uni and i plan to get some work experience here before leaving to canada to pursue my masters in oil and gas related courses...

i would like to ask how long are graduates allowed to stay and work there upon completion of their course? is it possible for foreigners to get a job there  especially in engineering?

thanks for any advice
