Last year, the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care made positions remaining after the 2nd iteration of the CaRMS match available to IMGs who were Canadian citizens and permanent residents studying in specific medical systems. Why not repeat that process?
The Spring 2005 process was a one-time initiative to address barriers to accessing residency training that were identified for some IMGs. The ministry is aware that this approach did not address all barriers. As part of its efforts to continue to reduce barriers, the ministry has taken the approach of providing broader access in the second iteration of the CaRMs match, with the aim of increasing opportunities for IMGs.
