In terms of licensing internationally trained physicians, I've been actively involved in supporting that but with a great degree of caution.
There are a number of international medical graduates who do training at The Hospital for Sick Children, additional training. Over the two to three years of their subspecialty training, we get to know how good their training was before that and what sorts of individuals they are. Then we're in a position to advocate on their behalf to get licensing through a process called “academic licensure” here in Ontario. I've been very involved in that. I think it's an amazing potential resource to address some access gaps, but cautiously, because there are places in the world that don't have the same sort of training we do.
