Canada is grappling with a severe shortage of family doctors — but Canadian-born family physicians working abroad are fighting to get the paperwork they need to practice here.

The MCC is money-grubbing, rent-seeking, parasite of an organization. Even having trained in Canada and having had an easier time going through all the hoops the IMGs, I have nothing but disdain for them.

Ontario and other provinces have recently allowed US licenced physicians to practice in Canada and this should be extended to other Western countries with similar training and practice, especially for desperately needed roles like family physicians.
