If you have the International Driver License, it's valid for 60 days. My personal experience, I got my Chinese Driver License translated by ATIO, and the Car Rental Company (AVIS) rent a car to me. It is Car Rental company's resposibility to verify your qualification.
However, before you get your license translated, you'd better call Car Rental company to see if they would accept it, since translation costs CAD$50.00
