American doctors look to relocate to Canada to avoid the Trump administration
"Part of being a physician is being kind to people who are in their weakest place, and I feel like our country is devolving to really step on people who are weak and vulnerable."
"The number of American doctors creating accounts on physiciansapply.ca has increased more than 750% over the past seven months compared to the same time period last year."
Amid the political climate under President Trump's administration, many American doctors, like Michael, are choosing to immigrate to Canada to escape the rising violence and cruelty they perceive in the U.S. healthcare system. Concerned about the ethical implications of practicing medicine in this environment, they find solace in Canada's healthcare values. The surge in applications from American physicians seeking Canadian licenses has increased dramatically, highlighting this trend and the desire for a compassionate approach to healthcare.
