Jobs For Doctors In Canada

Rosa Said:

What is the job availability for doctors and surgeons in Canada?

We Answered:

"[edit] Medical professional shortage
Canada's shortage of medical practitioners causes problems.[28] With 2.2 doctors per thousand population, Canada is well below the OECD average of 3.0, although its 10 nurses per thousand was slightly above the OECD average of 8.6.[29] Suggested solutions include increasing the number of training spaces for doctors in Canada, as well as streamlining the licensing process for foreign doctors already in the country.[30]

Doctors in Canada make an average of $202,000 a year (2006, before expenses).[31] Alberta has the highest average salary of around $230,000, while Quebec has the lowest average annual salary at $165,000, creating interprovincial competition for doctors and contributing to local shortages.[31]

In 1991, the Ontario Medical Association agreed to become a province-wide closed shop, making the OMA union a monopoly. Critics argue that this measure has restricted the supply of doctors to guarantee its members' incomes.[32]

According to a 2007 article, the Canadian medical profession is suffering from a brain drain. The article states, "One in nine trained-in-Canada doctors is practising medicine in the United States... If Canadian-educated doctors who were born in the U.S. are excluded, the number is one in 12."

Hope that helps!

Jesse Said:

What job is easier to find in Canada: Lawyer or Doctor?

We Answered:

I think either one will be fine. There are always people want lawyer for various reasons. Business type, liability type, contract law, etc. On the other hand, we will always need doctor of all sorts. Just concentrate on school right now and see which path is more suitable for you.
