Thank you, Chair.
My questions today are for Dr. McPherson.
Dr. McPherson, thank you so much for coming today, it means a lot. On behalf of the people of Kitchener, thank you for coming to serve our community. Beyond that, thank you for coming to committee today, because you're not just serving Kitchener now, you're serving the whole country of Canada. We're really pleased and proud to have you here.
I'd like to ask some questions at a high degree of granularity because I think individual cases help us to understand what is actually going on with immigration for health care professionals. If I ask you any questions that are prying or you don't feel comfortable answering, just please let me know. Don't feel compelled to answer anything.
We spoke a little bit before the meeting. You've practised in both countries. You've practised all around the United States, as you told me. Is there any reason ER doctors in general in the United States wouldn't be able to practise in Canada tomorrow?
