P.Eng is not a degree. You get it by writing a pass/fail ethics exam for the local regulatory board after completing an actual Engineering degree (BASc/BEng), and paying yearly dues.

P.Eng is not required for most engineering activities. One notable exception being civil engineers, since there's so much signing off on blueprints for infrastructure.

Yah, by 'p.eng degree' I meant 'one of the degrees that qualify for a p.eng license'. Thanks for clarifying.

The engineering bodies categorically take the position that you can't use the word 'engineer' anywhere in your title, say that you do engineering, or do engineering under their definition of it without their license. See this recent letter for example [0] or their FAQ on it [1]
