Hello there, here with another medical question.
Reading through Transport Canada's requirements, I see that ADHD and the use of SSRIs require further medical testing. Looking through them, the requirements seem to be the same as the FAA's.

https://www.faa.gov/ame_guide/app_proce ... epressants
Now, I have actually went through this entire process (ADHD Standard Path/SSRI) with the FAA this year, and I have just received a special issuance granting a first class medical.
My question is, since I have done this with the FAA, would TC accept the FAA's special issuance/American Doctors' reports as evidence?
Thank you!

Tc will look at it but you have to have letter addressing all issues regarding antidepressants and previous history and prognosis I believe there are 7. Finally it has to address all the necessary items with final wording being correct. Last heard about class one you are restricted to fly with another pilot unless that changed

It's 12 items. Class one letter has to be done by psychiatrist

You also need ADHD test results from a neuropsychologist.
