This short #documentary highlights how the mechanism of #discrimination prevents foreign-trained #doctors from practicing in #Canada – even after they've received their #Canadian qualifications. Every year, scores of these doctors are turned down for the residencies they need in order to practice – and many of those residencies stay vacant. Through interviews with #medical professionals and #HumanRights advocates it becomes clear that #SystemicRacism is to blame. Strikingly, several doctors interviewed for this film would not speak on camera, fearing repercussions from the medical establishment. What is the real problem: the incompetence of foreign-trained doctors or the #injustice of the system?

@EricCarroll Ontario ‘s “ignore and hide” response to the covid pandemic is downright criminal at this point. They forcebly hide infections, hide crashing hospital systems, hide unsafe schools, and hide the ramifications by avoiding wastewater testing. Canada is a pitiful mess run by overpaid authoritarian corporate goons with no ethics or care for humanity. Disgusting. We will remember.
