How can international medical graduates practice where they want and are needed? New laws may be the way forward buff.ly/3NUy9jU @joshgreggain @alikamd @ahmerkarimuddin @drkathleenross1 @socasma


This is so frustrating for every Canadian without a doctor. Every day this same story plays out. Who is working to change this - we need bold courageous leadership to lead us to real change @CFPC_e @OntarioCollege @BCCFP iheartradio.ca/newstalk-1010/…

"National #pharmacare needn’t remain a distant dream." We should implement federal procurement & coverage of essential medicines immediately, leading to savings of billions of💲for Canadians, employers & governments, not to mention better health😀 Please proceed @GovCanHealth!

Introduce #pharmacare in Canada with an 'essential medicines' program. Federal procurement of these medications could very quickly establish the system and just as quickly benefit millions of Canadians, by @SteveUBC @NavPersaud ottawacitizen.com/opinion/morgan… via @ottawacitizen

Canada, we can do better than this. In parts of the country >30% of ppl😲 don't have access to a family doctor or nurse practitioner. If we figured out how to ensure every child can access public school, surely we can build a system of #PrimaryCareForAll. theglobeandmail.com/canada/article…

Plain language explanation of the unreasonable, bureaucratic barriers Canadian doctors - who trained abroad - face when trying to practice in Canada. @adriandix @doctorsofbc @HealthMatchBC timescolonist.com/opinion/editor…


110 postes en résidence n'ont pas été comblés en 2023 au Canada, y compris 100 postes en médecine familiale. Les communautés à prédominance francophone, surtout au Québec et au Nouveau-Brunswick, ont vu 73 postes en médecine familiale laissés vacants.


110 medical residency positions went unfilled in Canada in 2023, including 100 in family medicine. Notable is Alberta with 28 positions that went unfilled, including 22 in family medicine. Alberta doesn't open up the second iteration of the match to International Medical Grads

Communiqué de presse: La Société pour les Canadiens qui étudient la médecine à l'étranger applaudit la récente annonce de l'Ordre des médecins de l'Ontario visant à réduire les obstacles pour les médecins formés à l'étrangers. socasma.com/general/news-r…


News release: The Society for Canadians Studying Medicine Abroad applauds CPSO Announcement Removing Barriers for Internationally Trained Physicians. socasma.com/general/news-r…


So Canada needs young people, and we need doctors. And yet… when our young people choose international medical school we make it near impossible to come home to practice? How does this make sense?
