It is nearly unbelievable that thousands of Canadians studying or practising medicine abroad are prevented, in large degree, from returning home.

It is nearly unbelievable that thousands of Canadians studying or practising medicine abroad are prevented, in large degree, from returning home by sheer bureaucratic obstructionism. First, your application must be vetted and approved by the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada to determine whether Canadian training standards were met.
However, if you pass that screen, you have to take the RCPSC certification exam, and here the obstructionism becomes unmistakable. If you are a family doctor trained abroad, you don’t have to take the RCPSC exam, but you do have to satisfy the licensing authority in the province you want to come home to.
