Pre-veterinary medicine is what you do before veterinary school (that's what the pre is for). Veterinary medicine is not a major.

The post-secondary educational system in Canada is very similar to the United States, particularly in regards to training in veterinary medicine. You would likely need fairly strong grades, particularly in math and science courses, to be accepted to a good undergraduate college to complete your pre-requisite classes before applying to vet school. I suspect a GPA of 3.0 or better would be ideal.
