For Canada there is an IMPP program for internationally trained midwives at Ryerson University in Toronto - program is less than a year. It isn't school, but training in the areas that are different in Canada and includes a placement. Midwives are registered in most provinces and are funded by provincial health insurance in Ontario, BC & Alberta (and possibly others - I haven't looked it up but stats are available on www.canadianmidwives.org)
