- Internationally trained dentists traveled to Yonge Dundas square to protest what they are calling ‘unfair licensing practices in Canada. Brandon Rowe speaks with some of the protesters to find out what they want to see going forward.
Canada wants highly professionals for uber drivers and cleaners!
Yeah I know a dentist who came here and is working as a cashier
cashier is still better , most of them works as uber and trucks as they dont get jobs..
A great deal of discrimination against these professionals. They actually bring more to the system, which we waste. They bring a lot of free experience and skills. The human body is the same everywhere- this should be common sense.
For glasses, Pacific Mall (Markham, Ontario) has lower prices. It appears that Asians bypassed the Canadian monopoly and have lower prices.
The entire system is made to earn money rather than actually work towards increasing qualified dentists in the country. These are dentists with masters degree and years of experience who are been treated as if they know nothing about the profession. The system is not just unfair but it’s preposterous. A change needs to come.
It’s not just with dentists it’s the same with lawyers,engineers and doctors as well…
Teachers as well
You cant imagine there are 6 exams in total and ,more than 100,000 cost that may vary with individual circumstances, no other profession bears such a torture
@andy D Yes so that someone like you come and shoot me ..moreover andy D looks as fake as any virtual name..
They should all be deported immediately to resolve the national housing crisis and healthcare backlog
@@canadatoronto4458 The way engineers and doctors are manufactured in colleges and universities abroad, they need to go through the apprenticeship here to learn work ethics and skills
Both dentists and glasses are incredibly overpriced for a reason the system has been monopolized to maintain a shortage wish hurts Canadians because the shortage increase prices . I can tell you 3rd world countries have incredible affordable dental care to all incomes with high standards. I totally stand with international students. This current system doesn't help Canadian patients and future students.
We need more dentist. It is really protecting Dentist income.
This is all legit and should be listened to. How is an immigrant with no job supposed to come up with the money to take these tests? They are trained as dentists/lawyers/doctors/nurses.. but they come here from countries where a $1000 is a huge sum of money. So they work as taxi drivers and McDonalds employees and try to save up to take these tests. Rent/food/bills, combined with these low wages make saving for the test take years. In the mean time, ERs are closed due to nursing shortages and many towns have no doctor.
Find a better way. If they pass their tests, shorten the time till they can work, or at least make it no more burdensome than a Canadian fresh out of school would face. Provide loans or grants to speed up how long it takes them to have the funds to take their tests and begin to work the meaningful jobs we need them to work.
This is why being an immigrant in Canada can be a joke. Imagine being a trained competent individual in your home country only for your credentials to become garbage upon arriving in Canada. AND, the government wants you to abandon your original profession to go for a skilled trade 💀
Very important to understand one thing, no one in Canada forced you to come over so quit complaining.
What is wrong with a skilled trade afraid of getting your hands dirty?
Then should go back to your country
@Synchro Metanom doesn’t mean you set up unrealiatic standards. Everybody deserves fair chance whether they are born in canada or moved to canada !
@@Tannyk1 And no one forced you to come here and tell them what to do. It is their right to demand what they want. You got a problem, stay away from here !
Canadian government didn't promise them that they be working in their chosen profession so follow the rules and live with it. Remember no one forced you to come over here.
It is so easy to just shove it off by saying "oh you shouldn't have come". You are no one to sit and comment on people's dreams and aspirations. So kindly keep quiet.
I think the problem is, if they were told ahead of time that this is how Canada will be, they wouldn’t bother coming here. Afterall, they are highly skilled professionals at their home countries
@TheAshdan81 so they say. If they were legit and experienced professionals operating at high standards, they'd have no trouble finding jobs. Clearly, there is something wrong with their qualifications and/or ethics; hence, the reason for the long drawn-out process
As a newcomer, 100% agreed!
@@AB-se3me janitorial jobs, you mean?
At the end of the day we want top people not fakes
All are professionals .getting into medical is also very difficult. All work hard and have come so far to get better job opportunities
My neighbour’s husband who’s had a dental practice in South Africa for decades and is a specialist in at least one area was told he’s qualified to teach dentistry at a Canadian university but can’t practice here without going through a long recertification process. So she moved to South Africa so they could be together. It’s ridiculous especially since they both have extended family in the U.S. they would like to be close to and will now have to wait until he retires for them both to be together in Canada, if they even want to by then. Canada has lost not one, but two, highly educated professionals.
We'll manage
@andy D Their dentists are at least as well-trained as Canadian ones. And you need to be more highly trained than a regular dentist to be able to teach at a Canadian university. What surprises me is that I have to explain this.
@Synchro Metanom I know the full story. He is fully qualified and has decades of experience. Just not posting the fine details because it’s a public forum.
@Brenda Delaney yea decades of experience indulging in shoddy medical care practices and 3rd world ethics. If he was that experienced, he should have no problem completing the examination process by now
@Synchro Metanom no man all foreigners have zero IQ while all Canadians are geniuses with triple digit IQ. It's impossible to match Canadian smarts, and standards. When I walk in east Hastings Vancouver, I see all these very genius Canadians who are homeless and junkies and wonder why they are homeless? A dental specialist from South Africa surely doesn't have the IQ of those junkies in East Hastings
Yes they should have immediate PAID internships of 2 years and continuing education courses as they go for all foreign doctors and other professionals etc etc etc ... nurses too - it would be much easier - and of course a IELTS test etc ... much easier I think ...
I agree . It’s better to offer paid internship and then give the license. The entire licensing process is so messed up. It drains your energy, time and money
What's not fair? If they fail than they are not qualified and are not up to the task.
Good Question I will tell you what the unfair point is
Before 2022 the practical skills exam done in different way such as the dentists they can fail one project over 12 because they are human beings but now the dentists must pass all the projects
Also Before 2022 the national dental examining board were mentioned clearly why the dentists failed and what the mistakes they had to improve them self next time but now they only released the results for pass or fail with no any comments for reasons of failed they didn't mention why the dentists failed and what thier mistakes
At the end the exam before 2022 was 2 days practical skills exam now it is one day exam that mean there is no enough time to finish it .
How are they racism and unfair against us ?
@@seek403 Everyone has to take the exam why should you get a credit just because you are a new comer? No means no.
At the beginning I am Canadian citizen and I studied dentistry out side Canada I am not a new Comer but even if I am a new Comer I will have a right to talk against this changes happening now because they are consider unfair changing against us as a Human beings and they have to change this way
@@seek403 You are not a new comer than it's even worse if you can't pass an exam. I think it's good that you all had not passed because you are not qualified.
@@TheRaidoRune A dentist is a dentist. Why are international students tested at an unreasonably more difficult level that canadian students? The concern is about competency and qualification right? If so hold them to the same standard as Canadian Students to practice in CANADA. How hard is that to understand? The current system is just skewed towards making the dentistry board filth rich as they bankrupt both international students, the government and the Canadian taxpayer. They are legit mafia.
Internationally trained WHERE? Not all countries have the same medical standards for training.
No. Some even have much higher standards. Some of these graduates come from schools ranked much higher than Canadian schools on the worldwide system.
You could get much better dental care treatment, a vacation, the best facilities at much better price and the staff is higly qualified abroad. The current system it's unfair and mean to keep a monopoly that hurts students and Canadian patients
@@PR-qx5ju true
how about the questions been leaked and blackmarketed and years of wait, which country have that sort of system..
@@MrAlen6e Thanks means a lot..In my country people from all over the world come for implants for cheap cost and best treatments..our enginerrs are hired directly by NASA, its just these people have made this a multi billion dollars scam industry...it has nothing to do with testing our caliber, in which profession after 10 to 15 years of practice you ask 1st years question and fail students..?
I come from an immigrant background, I have seen way too many professionals going through the process, it's not fun. But without the process, how do we know your internationally acquired credentials suits the needs of Canada. Sorry, part of coming to Canada, if others can do it to fit themselves in Canada, why do you have to take it to the streets?
@@Shaylas I didn't not know that, thanks for this info! I don't think only 14 students managed to pass out of 180 is that crazy, it could also mean that we have prevented 166 unqualified dentists from entering the industry. I am with you on cutting the red tape though. Making people wait for a year just to get the opportunity to take the exam is absolutely insane!
It's the 'others can do it' that's the issue here. No, others can't. Canadian dentists are not being held to these strict, unrealistic standards. Several Canadian dentists, including senior, experienced ones freely admit that they would never be able to pass these exams.
@@Shaylas If what you're saying is true, your message deserves to be heard by many more Canadians. I am all for hard work, fairness and equal opportunities!
@@Shaylas On top of that there is no financial aid and loans are limited, good enough only if exams are done on time for the firts time, none of the Canadian recruiters offer us decent job opportunities..
@@synchrometanom7578 this is information you won't find online: do you know what exactly changed from 2021 to 2022? The time given. The earliesr tests allowed 90 minutes per skill; it's now 60 minutes. How many errors do you think the average dentist would take if they had their time cut by half an hour? Sometimes the dentists taking these exams know that their work isn't perfect; they simply don't have the time to deliver! And FYI: the average dentist, Canadian graduates, and test takers prior to 2021 all take 90 minutes for any complex dental procedure.
All these dentists are saying is that it's absurd to not make mistakes when you're expecting a rush job.
Nobody made them move here. If I was moving to a new country to work, I would look into it before moving.
A better story would be to look at the exorbitant cost of going to a dentist. I recently had to have some teeth pulled and I was charged $272.00 a tooth. They are now charging at least the maximum your insurance will allow for every procedure.
More dentists = cheaper dental costs. So you should support this cause
Unfair, perhaps. To call it an injustice is absurd. Yes, you are a dentist, you will get your chance to prove it. I don't see any dentistry students who failed an exam demonstrating at on Dundas. Just take the exam again. Imagine if they had to do their Dentistry degree all over again, they wouldn't be happy about that I assume.
They're setting students to fail to keep their monopoly, it's unfair to both students and Canadians looking for dentists.
We actually literally had to do our dentistry all over again that's true!! It's been 5 years now other then the years we spent in college and postgraduate for us trying to finish the licensing exam only because of the unfairness of the process the cancelation of the exams and the u logical evaluation process!!!
At this point I rather do my degree all over again than take these exams. 6 years and still in the process and I have passed 2 board exams in 2 different countries. You say it's easy but even the Canadian grads would fail these exams. It's like asking you to perform an amalgam filing with incomplete instrument, busted up high speed, 7 task in 8 hours while juggling 2 balls and jumping through a hoop. What kind of exam are those? It's easier just to study and go to school in Canada then take these exams. The public shouldn't even whine about doctor shortage of they are supporting NDEB and other regulations that are causing huge problems and obstacles for not only dentists but doctors to get their license here. You have no right to whine about doctor shortage if you are fine with how the regulatory body is making it basically impossible to get your license in 2 to 3 years.
Its a billion dollar industry scam not exams, we are ready for any dam exam...
@andy D that's ok, NDEB verifies the degrees before they accept them into the equivalency exam. So that's not a problem but the fact that these exams are prepared unprofessionally, registration is a big mess and seats fill up in 10 seconds because NDEB has no cap for how many applicants they approve is a huge problem. Also there other problems that causes any foreign professional to not look into Canada at all and go elsewhere, therefore doctor shortages. Please look at what causes this shortage, because it's artificial. How high are the standards of Canadian schools to schools like Oxford in UK? You really think Canada has higher standards in post secondary? Look at the chart for best schools and some schools like SFU end up 200 in world rankings. Don't think for a second that everyone comes here with fake degrees. Just because a few have fake degrees and don't even get qualified to take these exams, doesn't mean everyone comes here with fake degrees...that is complete BS and you know it.
I think the system should be more stricter than it is now.Otherwise people flock to cheaper and easier countries to do dental degree and come back and flood Canada with substandard practice. If you compare an IMG(International medical graduate) trying to be licenced in Ontario, this is nothing.
everywhere it's is very difficult for dentist like USA Australia UK 😢
Lol, ya'll better thank god the process isnt the same as USA. I'm in Arizona and I literally had to go back to dental school for 2 years, and paid almost 100k in tuition in order to be able to practice. but ya'll in Canada you get to prove yourself with only 3 exams! and pay what 9k? so what? its a blessing, go for it, its worth it in the long run and you gonna be making good money
only 3 exam😢 that's is too much there should be only 1 exam
Malpractice doctor malpractice lawyers malpractice of opthalmologist etc issues
It breaks my heart
They don't believe in us
They played themselves
While you hatin' and being jealous
You could be over here embracin' that love
More love, more blessings, more life
GOD DID
You either win with us, or you watch us win
Canada has a lot of prtected industries. Dentistry is only one. You should see how doctors drive cabs.
This is not an exam . It is revenge
and 6 revenges, including English exam that is repeated every 2 years..what equality is this, all our lived we studied English...
Cry about it
I work with dentists and I can assure you that even though the process might be surely sped up, the scrutiny must be merciless.
Yes it should be streamlined. It's high time now. Some dentists are post graduates in their home countries, they had spent half of their lives and money on dentistry. They don't deserve to go through all that again just to prove their skills and knowledge. It's harsh, really, changes should be made in the process. It should be easier, shorter and less costlier.
Thank you City News for covering our story. I hope the NDEB listens and make these examinations fair.
pls share it on all social medias, we all have to do our efforts
Your story is a joke, nobody cares
please advise: i am Canadian born but my parents moved abroad when i was young for their jobs and i grew up abroad and am now a licensed GP in Egypt. i want to move back to Canada to be with the rest of my family and relatives plus the job market here in Egypt isn’t great. i am willing to take the exams and work entry level jobs if i must. but i am concerned about the time and money it will take. something to keep in mind is the current exchange rate from my local currency to the canadian dollar. so whatever amount of money i have saved from working doesn’t really amount to much once i move back to Canada. i have even considered using that money to take a dental assistant program and get certified. it would be faster and overall cheaper. but i would really love to give back to my community and contribute with my full skill set.
injustice with the dentist will never suggest to chose dentistry as a career
There is a nightmare registration for an exam. All spots are taken quickly in a blink of eye, within a minute when the registration is just opened at 7 am EST, so many people failed to register and have to wait for the luck in next time, but no guarantee.
Unfortunately, these professionals are not given equal treatment and are set up for failure. This can be extremely harmful and may result in subpar medical services being provided to the public. At a time when our healthcare system is facing significant challenges, we cannot afford to waste the talents and skills of these professionals.
Moreover, it is important to remember that diversity and inclusivity are crucial components of a strong and resilient healthcare system. A discriminative approach based on conflict of interest will only serve to undermine the efforts of these professionals and weaken the healthcare system as a whole.
You can’t imagine the level of anxiety and stress that internationally trained dentists and their families are going through. When the seats are full in 5 minutes after the exam registration is open that by it self it a huge stress in addition to the cost of the exams.
In less than one minute sometimes
NDECC is less than 10 seconds and it's full
@@samjam6989 ACJ 10 sec full in Canada

@@canadatoronto4458 it's a sad situation and hope it gets fixed

I think we have to be aware that standards need to be maintained. I went to a foreign trained dentist and had issues with my crown he placed. Changed to a U of T trained dentist who figured out the crown messed up my bite and worsened my tmj. This dentist fixed my issue and provided a perfectly fitted crown. For me there should be a rigourous retraining process otherwise standards will not be maintained.
Ppl are losing their money (500 thousands dollars) and the requirements are not even comparable to Canadian graduates, on the other hand, the Canadian government keeps on advocating that Canada needs dentists to bring them up and rip them off
Seems like the Canadians doing the most complaining are new 🤔 meanwhile they aren't required to clean up after themselves or pull off to the side off the street before getting out of their new car 🙄
Accept british dentists! Accredit us!
It is unfair testing system ,,,which their own schools trained dentists cannot pass😂😂,,,challange is open .
In Canada we say, if you don't like it, LUMP IT.
There's a Badder Santa, who trolls on the net, In the comments section, he's quite the threat. With his hateful words, and his cruel insults too, He brings nothing but negativity, that's his point of view.
On UA-cam he roams, seeking victims to mock, With his keyboard as his weapon, he launches each attack. He delights in the pain, of those he's brought down low, And the more he trolls, the more he wants to show.
But the people of the net, they're not so easily swayed, They stand up against the Badder Santa, their voices are not afraid. With their words of love and kindness, they show him the way, And the Badder Santa, is slowly driven away.
So let us all remember, the power of our words, And how we can use them, to heal and not to hurt. Let's spread love and positivity, in all that we do, And let the Badder Santa, be a lesson for me and for you.
its fine if we have to give exams to get licensed but they ask us to re-enter dental schools (although we've already graduated) and pay over 500,000 dollars which we don't have and we're not eligible for federal student loans either and theres also only a few spots in the advance standing programs and SO many applicants have to keep waiting years to find a spot. so in the end you have millions of Doctors sitting at home in the usa who cant work at all while theres a huge demand for dentists in the country, its a dumb selfish way for CODA to make money off of already graduated professional doctors who're legally practicing in other countries. Its nothing but capitalist considering they do this for the money.
Unfair.. its a ridiculous process . Should not be there in the first place. Canadian dental association is lowering the standards of dentistry in Canada by providing licensing without education upgrades
The requirements are nothing new. They've been around for decades. And some countries don't have the same educational standards that Canada has. Russia has been known for shorting their educational system for a long time. What they need to do is to determine which countries already meet the standards or at least try to align the standards within some countries, such as the UK and the US.
Wrong. These requirements were newly introduced in September 2022. they are more biased than the earlier ones, and do not apply to Canadian graduates
It is unfair in general it’s not just the test if you come from a different country other than Europe or America got to basically start over and we have a healthcare worker crisis and so many immigrants who have degrees but can’t work it’s bs
@@memelogic922 That's because Canadian graduates paid for an education IN CANADA.
If you don't like it go to school IN CANADA.
Because Witch Magic from South Africa isn't exactly what we in Canada would call "Medicine".
Hey , I am a post grad from UK ! Canada doesn’t recognize English qualification , even though you still grace the queen on your currency ! Talk about red tape !
@Thomas McFiddles yes waiting outside ER for endless hours and dying is what you call medicine in Canada
I have actually explained before and after my situation and the unjust we have been through in this interview much longer than that but they have cut the interview to include what they wanted if you listen to my whole story it will make so much sense.
No dear I didn't know it would be this nightmare I was working full time Ina very prestige place in the government sector before coming to Canada and having this shock. This is the first time they administer this exam and after more then three years of constant training this is the result a fail for no reason and we are not even allowed to know why and it just takes a single comment in any of the 8 projects to fail the whole exam!
It’s not fair? Give me a tear
Do you want a list of things unfair on this earth
Grow up
Canadians first
I agree
What we go through in this country to get our license is absolute torture! I did the practical exam in November and paid 25k for just one attempt and god knows if I will pass or no! ( 9k exam registration + 12k training course for 8 months+ 5k to buy the material and practice teeth). Im strong enough to handle the stress of these exams but I know a lot of my friends who developed anxiety and depression disorder and lost their social life and self confidence!!! This situation can not be tolerated anymore
There are people taking antidepressants and getting hospitalized but are scared to share their stories, I dont know why?
@andy D I wish to God someone from fake diploma might treat yourself and your family, then you will realise what we'r fighting for..Amen...You dont even realise what you talk...do you know the difference between diploma and degree?
@Synchro Metanom Are you the head of the Dental Board of Canada telling people what they should have expected or not. Shut Up. These people are 100 times more hardworking than you. They have every right to protest !
Stop complaining. In what world did you expect a red carpet to be unravelled for you when you arrived. Shoulda done your research before getting on the plan Fatima
Be professional. Take the exam and pass it.
If you are professional, exam can't be an obstacle.
you don’t get it, don’t you.
they have to do more than 18 assessments if they make a small single mistake, a really small one they fail.
@@brxncxbyte7048 Again, this is called testing. All Canadian dentists have done it. Stop looking for special treatment.
@thomas , no , the Canadian dentists have not proven their mettle with exams like this.
Unfair exams with unrealistic passing standards are definitely obstacles. Top Canadian dentists would not clear these exams.
The discriminatory method of credential recognition, particularly as it pertains to the National Dental Examining Board (NDEB), must be put to a halt. As citizens of this nation, we have the right to be accorded the same treatment and recognition as Canadian graduates, with no preferential or adverse treatment. It is imperative that the NDEB be held accountable through the legal system, in order to ensure that justice is served. NDEB to the court room!
There is discrimination even in Mcdonalds.
Thank you city News for standing with justice.
Why are Canadians now suddenly vastly outnumbered in overcrowded Canadian cities?
They have balls to protest, hats off 👏 👍.
People complaining about cost of living, housing, low wages, rent...don't protest 🙄
Dude. These people also deal with cost of living, low wages and rent. Most of them work minimum wage jobs.
Yup, we’ve got balls ! Huge , humongous ones ! The ones which this country gave us as a fundamental right to protest, if you have a problem of cost of living and mortgages , I’d suggest you grow a pair too … good luck with that.
It is a privileged profession, personally it took me a lot of years to get in. In fact I wouldn’t have it any other way. If you are ready to work for it, your perseverance will show. Otherwise go for something else. Do your homework before immigrating.

Canada needs immigrants but wants the best ones. The trophy ones aren't going work
We have one single request please from the ndeb please put the Canadian graduates in the same exam and ask them to do the 8 requirements back to back with a 15 mins break and if they get all passes in all of them hands down we will be more then happy to do this exam an endless number of times. Canadian dental graduates get evaluated based on the subject never go through an 8 hour practical exam and they get to know their mistake and they get to repeat only that mistake! Unlike us we fight for seats for years and years and when we get one after years and years of training for the exam knowing every single requirement they ask from us and they still fail us for a single unknown comments we are dentists tooo we have graduated we have been in the evaluation process from the time we started this career!!!
After years of training and then years of practice we cant even become their dental assisstants and hygeinists, and the exams that we take looks like walking in a tunnel with a dark end..
The process has costed me 5 plus years of my life in endless training and more then 50,000 dollars like this is the minimum because their are the exams and the instruments and the material and the training courses that I have taken it's a drain of my 10 years of savings from back home!
Thank you so much for this detailed report, we hope that to hear back from NDEB
I would never let a Muslim be my

@@farmerjoe8508 good luck with this mentality 👍🏻
not unfair at all
Why do you say not unfair? Are you in the process or maybe you are ignorant. When registration fills up in 2 seconds and you have to wait 6 more months to register, is that fair? Don't whine about doctor shortages, nurse shortages or any Canadian labour shortage if you think the process is fair. Heck I don't want to even hear you whine about anything that you need to wait like getting your passports renewed or waiting for a CT scan. Remember to don't whine about it like a little child just accept it.
Ok for all the Canadians that whine about doctor shortages but don't support the foreign doctors, please don't whine about being in ER for 10 hours or cry in pain. You guys keep harping about standards yet you forget the politics involved and the business NDEB has extracting money from foreign dentists and keep adding exams just so they can protect their own lucrative market. Remember that Canada keeps adding 500K immigrants every year and this doctor shortage, nurse shortage and even dentist shortage will get worst once the government assisted dental plan opens up and more professionals retire. Let that sink in before discriminating against foreign professionals. At least we work and pay taxes but if this thing keeps up then you will get more low skilled refugees while the skilled immigrants take their businesses elsewhere. Good luck with your 5 or 6 dental colleges meeting the demand of increasing population then.
If you could've taken your business elsewhere by now, you would've. Also, who says Canada is entitled to better our health care systems in order to cater to you immigrants. If you plan on coming here, you should be ready to take the good with the bad. That includes free health care with long wait times
@@AB-se3me There once was a person named A B,
Whose comments were mean, and full of glee.
On UA-cam he'd troll, with a smirk on his face,
And bring others down, with his hateful disgrace.
With each video he watched, he'd type away,
His insults and jabs, with nothing to say.
No matter the subject, his words were the same,
Bringing others down, with endless disdain.
But what A B failed to see,
Is that his words, have no real glee.
For he sits behind a screen, hiding his face,
While spreading negativity, in this digital space.
So let us not be like A B, with our words so unkind,
But rather lift others up, with a heart and a mind.
For words have power, to hurt and to heal,
So let's choose wisely, how we choose to feel.
Conservative, or the act of prioritizing one's own needs and desires above those of others, can be harmful to a society for several reasons.
Firstly, Conservatism can lead to a lack of empathy and compassion for others. When individuals are primarily focused on their own well-being, they may be less likely to consider the needs and experiences of others. This can lead to a lack of concern for the well-being of marginalized or vulnerable communities, which can result in neglect and abuse. Furthermore, it can lead to a lack of understanding and tolerance for diverse perspectives and experiences, which can lead to discrimination and violence against marginalized groups.
Secondly, Conservatism can lead to a culture of competition and scarcity. When individuals are primarily focused on their own self-interest, they may be more likely to compete with others for limited resources, such as jobs, housing, and healthcare. This can lead to a cutthroat and violent environment where individuals will go to great lengths to get what they want, regardless of the consequences for others.
Thirdly Conservatism can lead to a lack of cooperation and collaboration. When individuals are primarily focused on their own self-interest, they may be less likely to work together with others to achieve common goals. This can lead to a lack of trust and cooperation among community members and a lack of progress on issues that require collective action.
Fourthly, Conservatism can lead to negative impact on the economy and society as a whole, when individuals are focused on their own self-interest, they may be less likely to invest in the common good, such as education, infrastructure, health care, and social welfare programs, which are essential for the well-being of society.
Lastly, Conservatism can lead to a lack of accountability. When individuals are primarily focused on their own self-interest, they may be less likely to take responsibility for their actions and the impact they have on others. This can lead to a lack of accountability for harmful behaviour and a lack of willingness to make amends for the harm caused.
In conclusion, Conservatism can be harmful to a society because it can lead to a lack of empathy, competition, cooperation, and accountability. It can result in neglect and abuse of marginalized communities, discrimination and violence, and a lack of progress on important issues, and negative impact on the economy and society as a whole. It is important for individuals and society as a whole to strive for a more compassionate, cooperative, and responsible way of living.

You want to be a skilled Dr in a medical field? Do the test or clean toilets. Choice is yours 🙄
Cleaning your mouth is same as cleaning toilet. It’s the same eitherways 😂😂
Canadian dental students don't do the test. Why aren't they cleaning toilets too?
@@alelectric2767 how do you know their capabilities by the way?
And for you is only about PAYING money to a Canadian university?
Because if it is all about money, trust me, we internationally trained dentists do fuel the Canadian in many ways.
@@alelectric2767We r not fighting just for exams, we are fighting for the long wait process, then papers get leaked and blackmarketed and there is no fair assessment in general and finacial stresses, no jobs in job market to support us and so many things...so whatever you're advocating here doesnt even make much sense...
@@alelectric2767 I couldn’t agree any more with you. I’m glad we are on the same page on this. Well this issue affects me directly so I am invested. I don’t know how interested would you be in learning more about this but if you learn more about what the concerns are here you’ll realise that what they expect from foreign dentists is something beyond the abilities of students trained in their very own universities. That’s one of the major issues, the others being concerned more with management and logistics which I don’t see anyone squabbling over since it’s not controversial enough
Bro they flooded these comments
Yes, Bro ! We did !
@@abrarmusani1 Allah snackbar muzzie
It is also important that certain touchy feely people are properly vetted.
We are not even given the opportunity to register for exam. Within one minutes all seats were full and we would be testing our luck after 6 months just to appear for exam !
You can go be a dentist in India
Isn't this the case for other professionals as well? I know physiotherapists, psychologists, massage therapists and medical doctors who had to do the same. Why should dentists be privileged in terms of skipping the line?
Nope. Medical doctors have one equivalency exam. Others have none. Equivalency is not the same as licensing exams which even Canadian grads have to give. After the equivalency, dental licensing exams are a separate issue.
please get more general knowledge before making false comments..
@@PR-qx5ju I cannot answer all your questions but I can confirm that my employee who was a doctor in India is still taking exams after 5 years. 5!!! Another one told me that it was too complicated so he gave up. In summary, I am sure there is more to the story. A physiotherapist from Europe was talking exams at least 2 years that I know of. There was a story in the media of a lady from Germany who was a lawyer and it was also a very long path for her.... I can go on and on and on with multiple examples that all come down to the same thing. Psychologists from Europe are also disadvantaged. In order to be a Psych in Ontario, you need a phD and 4 years of experience as an Psych Assistant. In some European countries, even at the bachelor's level, you are required to pass more exams... We can go an and on about this. I don't think dentists are any more disadvantages than other professionals from regulated professions.
@andy D Are you trying to say that the governing bodies are naive enough to not do a thorough background check of the authenticity of our international dental degree? Because of our so called "bought degree's" and international dental experience in patient care enabled us to attain a permanent residency status to pursue dentistry as a profession in Canada.
International doctors and dentists go through rigorous evaluations before they are even given a pr and allowed to set foot here. People with 'bought' degrees would not make the cut.
Teaching certification process is even more worst 💩💩💩
Move back to the homeland and become dentists..
Unfair. Injustice. Canadian Dentists are trained in Canada. We produce our own. We produce our own doctors, lawyers, and police officers. Made in Canada.
If you don’t like it leave.
That’s exactly the discriminatory mentality they are fighting against!
This costs 10,000+ $, if they made a small mistake in one of the assessments such as missing a millimeter space they fail the whole exam. They are humans too
Trudeau won't let them. He paid to ship the votes over here.
You are a despicable being.
Discriminatory lies in the fact that you don’t consider these dentists Canadians.
the process is bulsh*tttt
get good or back to training
You want to come here then do as we do
Why would I want a “dentist” trained in a third world country to work on my teeth. No way
Thank you for this valuable comment who came from a “human”
Your ignorance really amazed me
Life is always harder under a NDP/LIBERAL government.
When I came to Canada in the 1980's , I was already a graduate from hight school, but I had to go back to high school to complete a grade 12. Although, our education was much higher than Canada. It was a prerequisite use to get my grade 12 and move on to a college. So these ppl need to follow our Noth American rules. This is not Iran or Pakistan, show a piece of paper and think is ok to start work....got back to school...!!!
