Thank you for that question.
I arrived in Canada as a refugee as a result of problems that I had experienced in my country. I needed to find a job. I was receiving assistance, but I didn't like that. I started to work as a security officer for G4S. It was really depressing, until I found a job as a medical receptionist. The doors opened even wider when I began a program and started working under the supervision of doctors. This helped me a great deal.
As a result of those experiences, I lost the passion and interest I had in medicine. As a doctor, that wasn't what I had planned for myself. I lost my passion, but I thought that I could help other foreign doctors as a result of my experience. Working with doctors in Alberta would benefit them. I started my company, Blue Sky Staffing Network, to help foreign doctors communicate with private clinics. That is what I am doing now, and I hope to get help to do this. I work hard for the association that I am representing today, in order to ensure that we speak with one voice and help foreign doctors become part of the Canadian system.
