Teaching Certificates/qualifications from Alberta are completely transferrable to BC. There is no additional course work to do in that case. I think you just have to apply for a BC teaching certificate.
I don't have first-hand knowledge of the job situation in Victoria, but a friend of mine has moved to North Vancouver and is having a heck of a time even getting on a sub list (like ... 274 applicants for a small number of postings). I think he said something about the government freezing their budget because of the economy or something.
I'd love to teach in Victoria too ... makes me wonder if its a place that would be hard to get in to because everyone wants to work there.
All that being said, good luck with the job search!
