We’re making the path to permanent residence simpler for international medical doctors to support a stable health care system for Canadians by offering doctors:
•5 options to get permanent residence through Express Entry and regional, provincial and territorial programs
•faster 14-day work permit processing for medical doctors nominated by a province or territory, so they can work while waiting for permanent residence

Medical doctors can also include their family members in their application.

Racism and discrimination exist in our community. We must put our individual and collective energy into recognizing and righting these problems so everyone can be safe, feel valued, and reach their full potential. #StopTheDivide

As a charity committed to diversity and social inclusion, we believe that the Greater Toronto Area is one of the best places in the world to live. But we know it’s not the best place for everyone. #WeMustDoBetter

What's the difference between a refugee and a migrant?

Refugees are forced to flee their country escaping conflict, violence or persecution. More details from @refugees ⬇️
