It’s more than the right thing to do — this will open opportunity for Canada all across the globe. There will be a good return on this investment.

It feels good to be both kind and pragmatic. That’s the Canadian way!

Wonderful! What might we do about speeding up immigrants practicing medicine, dentistry, etc in Canada?

canadahealthwatch.bsky.social•15 days ago

We're working on it. There are also opportunities for journalists who want to come and train here..

Dang it. I'm now retired, so I'm out of the game. If only I heard about this 25 years ago.

How could I get connected to opportunities for journalists come to Canada and train? 🙏

I have a great friend who was a very successful dental hygienist is Australia. He moved to Canada to be with his parents and all his training and experience meant nothing.
So he got jobs doing other things and now almost 20 years later he's in nursing school.
Great ending, but WTH??

It's $355K per year over seven years.
The announcement had nothing to do with the dismantling of USAID.

it doesn’t say it does, just that it was announced *after* the attempt was started to shut it down.

Canada will always be there to help less fortunate nations and their people. We Canadians are lucky and proud to call this country our home. 🇨🇦

Guess you don’t understand the difference between provincial and federal funding and duties.
