Here in Canada we're trying to catch America's brain drain. We especially need doctors quite desperately.

doctors

How's the demand for nurses? I'll be finishing up nursing school in less than a year! :D

Or support staff? I'm a surgical tech now, and some of my coworkers (other techs, schedulers - bottom of the medical food chain, but still with specialty experience) feel trapped here by their lack of higher education.

Check out bchealthcareers.ca for an example of what is being done to encourage medical professionals to make the move to Canada. This site is B.C. specific but it includes doctors, nurses, and allied health professions.
