Practicing as a physician will likely be impossible if you come to Canada. Just want to warn you.

There are only so many retraining spots and they are usually only for family doctors. Many foreign trained doctors apply for the few spots. Not sure why most don't look into the IMG program. The training time for Canadian doctors is much longer and Canada wants to ensure that any foreign trained medical professional meets the same standards.
