Thanks Matthew, but I already have called ICBC about this and they have told me that Any Valid Drivers' license (one which is suitable for driving a car) works for this. In case if the license is not in English or French, there should be an official translation of the license.
 
I have  a french driving licence (from France) and an american too (from california) and I am over 25 so we should be good :)
