The pharma industry in Canada is relatively small. Could you get a transfer from your employer if they have offices in Canada? There is also a surplus of pharmacists in Canada. If you have a good career in India I would really research whether it makes sense to move. Are you willing to work in smaller communities? in community pharmacy? Lots of competition in big cities especially around the GTA. Have you looked to see if you qualify for immigration? How old are you? There is also about to be updates to the immigration system to try and target skills in demand at the federal level and try to get immigrants to settle outside Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal and Calgary.
