u can get HK license by showing them that u got the BC license and HK ID, it takes about 2 weeks and its about $1000 HKD
you can do the same in china now by showing them that you got a HK DL

For insurance, unlike canada, you don't getting discount the moment you get your drivers license. you need to own a car before you can get discounts.  and the discount only goes to your primary car.  you discount stops when you do not have a primary vehicle. so if u purchase a 2nd car, your discount starts at zero and calculate again.

they change the rule now, you cant get light truck license from the BC Class 5.  

you dont need to do anything for getting China license, its $20 RMB and all they need to do is check if your eyes can see stuff and you are good to go.  But you gotta go all the way to guangzhou to do it.
