Furthermore, as others have mentioned, it is possible to become a fully licensed professional software engineer in Canada. I'm familiar with this because I have an Ontario accredited software engineering degree and am in the process of obtaining my professional engineers designation (I have yet to write the requisite ethics exams).
Any individual in Canada wishing to pursue a career in software engineering as a licensed professional must begin with a degree from an accredited engineering school. For a list of accredited programs, see: http://www.engineerscanada.ca/e/acc_programs_1.cfm
