It sounds like there are more doctors moving from the US to Canada, but not a huge number. The numbers are up from last year, but not by a lot.
It would be interesting to know if Canadian healthcare workers are still moving to the US in a big way, but the article doesn’t explore that.
Actually, I’m a physician moving to Ontario. There’s certainly a lot of paperwork, and it isn’t cheap, but I can’t say it feels insurmountable. Nova Scotia had been a consideration as well and neither would have required and repeat of training. Just a lot of chasing down documentation to prove I hold a valid medical license in the states.
