You sure? I've seen enough terrible "surgeons" in rural America that'd rip out a liver all day long that washed out of their residency programs after "moving to Canada" and washing out of a crappy Vancouver hospital.

And there ain't no "kindly revert" when you pull the wrong organ.

Curious - does Vancouver have an especially bad reputation for medicine, or did you pick the city/country arbitrarily?

Canada's medical training program seems to me to be reasonably rigorous; as an outsider it doesn't seem worse than a typical American medical program. Unfortunately it also suffers from severe (artificial!) shortages of doctors.
