I have two lights in my bath on separate switches. One switch powers the vanity light, and the other powers a can light over the shower. I am adding an exhaust fan to the bath. Can I wire the ceiling fan off the can light so they both turn on together? I have about 6 total outlets/lights on circut.

I see no problem with this. In fact, a lot of bathrooms have a light and fan come on at the same time.

Remember, every time the light comes on, the fan comes on. I don't like this but, that's personal.

Sure. the fan will be on whenever the light is on, though.

No problem wiring them together. I myself would upgrade the existing circuit breaker for safety's sake.
