Naturopathic Doctor Licence: Moving from Northwest Territories to Ontario
The short answer
Direct transfer
Because no exceptions were registered for the naturopathic profession under the CFTA, naturopaths already registered in another Canadian jurisdiction can be recognized in Ontario without significant additional training, work experience, examination or assessment, though Ontario may require jurisprudence training and evaluate good character.

“The CFTA requires that certified workers must be recognized to work in another province or territory that regulates that profession without going through significant additional training, work experience, examination or assessment, unless an “exception” has been filed.”
