This should of been done years if not decades ago. I recall 30 years ago a friend who was a pharmacist had to take certification exams again when moving from one province to another. It was a ridiculous barrier then as it is now.

    I’m honestly a little skeptical here. Yeah it shouldn’t be difficult for regulated professionals to begin working in another province but idk about a blanket exemption. There’s stuff like the National Board Exam for oral health practitioners that’s unified across all the provinces’ regulatory colleges, but not every profession has that and even in that case clinical requirements vary and aren’t all held to the same standard of accreditation. Regulated professions are entirely a provincial responsibility and the colleges are organized along provincial lines, so I don’t see how you can say that someone in one province is as qualified as someone in another without further harmonization.

    Also I don’t see how removing liquor restrictions is gonna do anything but weaken the State monopolies and control regimes, but considering Ford’s war on the LCBO I’m not surprised.
