Can I export a family tree from another program to Family Search or do I need to start from scratch?

I currently have an online tree on Ancestry.ca with over 3000 members but I have been thinking of changing my research to Family Search. Just wondering if it is worth it.

Most of those 3000 people are already in FamilySearch - you simply need to connect a few links from you back to your most recent deceased ancestors.

 

do some searching and you will find most of your people are already here.

This is a collaborative single database of billions of records. People dont have private family trees like in Ancestry.
