IMG opportunities in Canada 🇨🇦

I grew up in Canada and I’ve always know it as a place of grand opportunity. Recently my opinion has changed quite a bit.

I have had a chance to really look at the state of healthcare in this country and determine that Canada is quite predatory in nature in regard to attracting IMG’s from around the globe.

They’ll offer attractive physician programs for immigration, they’ll promise a thriving career, and when you arrive.. there is no opportunity. Instead you are faced with a bureaucratic nightmare, and you question whether being a doctor is even worth it anymore.

Canada is just straight up preying on international physicians at this point. The country still has programs offering fast tracked visas and immigration in exchange for international doctors even though they know they won’t he able to promise a career to all of them. Canada simply underfunds healthcare. There is not enough opportunity for everyone, yet Canadas healthcare system is on the verge of complete collapse.

My question is: How have the IMG’s of Canada not protested or acted on this? Are your careers not worth it? Why is all of this still an issue.
