John,
I have lived in various provinces in Canada. To drive a motor home you only need a basic licence. Typically a Class 5, this is the same licence as needed for a passenger car.
As far as insurance,the fees can vary from province to province. For example , BC and Saskatchewan both have public (govt) insurance. Alberta and Newfoundland have private insurance but premiums vary widely. For equivalent coverage we pay close to double that of Albertans in Newfoundland. It pays to shop around especially for a visitor to Canada.
The same applies to RV's, prices vary by province. Alberta will likely have higher prices than say the Maritimes. Again it pays to shop.
And the most important part is to enjoy your trip.
