What do you expect??? All the immigrant physicians are busy driving taxis or delivering pizzas.... Canadian experience to be blamed..

It takes so many good foreign trained physicians to build trust and to undo all the good work you need just one goof up which could any have also happened at the table of Canadian trained doctor. Its a human tendency to stereotype.
Hope some day more people can rise above this and see that human capability is the same everywhere - it is is the cultural differences and opportunities that set us apart.
God made everyone equal.
Everyone deserves a fair chance.

The canadian medical regulatory system is changing but the change is too slow to show any results in near future.
One can hope and work towards it !!!!

Its just Raduculus ... patients are treated by doctors with the means of medicine not the citizenship of colour of skin... Despite years of representations to speed up adoption of foreign trained docs in canadian health care system not much has been done.
