Not true, most licensed professions in Canada allow foreign grad candidates from recognized institutions to sit for the Canada exams to test eligibility and competency standards. Then to meet other requirements such as residency requirements, supervisory practice, etc. However, if you don't pass the exam, then you can't practice in your professionAgreed. The struggle many immigrants face are the initial Hurdle of taking the exams. You can still work in the profession that you want but you need to work hard and start everything all over again.
Let me give you an example of a doctor.
