If a person is married and divorced overseas - Canada - how long would they have to wait after divorce becomes final to remarry in Australia?

Once you are legally divorced (not just separated), you're free to remarry. In Canada, you need to be separated for 12 months before divorce (same as Australia) - unless it's officially agreed as an at fault divorce (in BC anyway, other Provinces may vary).
