I'm currently a student taking up physiotherapy in the Philippines and i'm interested in working in Canada as a PT after I finish my DPT from a program working together with a local university and the university of montana. Is it possible for me to work as a PTA immediately while getting the necessary requirements to register and work as a PT? Thank you.

The short answer to your question is no.

Google "US physical therapist working in Canada".

This older thread might also help:

You should also consider how you plan to get a work permit in Canada. This is quite an involved process and requires you to find an employer first.
