Nice going Connor! Shortly after I started my first job I asked the company president about licensure, and he said "In some businesses it's important to have a license. In this business it's not." And that sentence saved me several months of hard studying and a ton of stress. On the other hand my degree is in mechanical engineering and now I work in nuclear, so studying for the PE in nuclear might have been a good way to fill in some gaps in my knowledge.

I imagine water infrastructure is one of those businesses where the extra effort is worth your while. And it's always nice to have a few extra letters after your name :)

Canada does require technical evaluations but wiaves them for graduates of accredited programs. So in practice most e fingerings g graduates in Canada do not need technical exams (their programs cover the technical requirements) but often people who studied abroad do need to do exams.
