Hi,

You must have CANADIAN QUALIFICATIONS to work in professional areas, as in your case medicine. They don't recognise foreign qualifications.Moreover they require also canadian experience.

First read this website

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/index.asp , if you have qualification and experience as they need, you can apply for immigration to canada. Go to bellow website, in left hand box, type your occupation and see codes, what is your NOC code and see details of duties etc to determine if you are eligible.

It may be hard to get licensed to work as a doctor in Canada but that doesn't mean you have to clean streets. Some doctors stayed with the licensing and did it again, some have gotten licensed to work as a nurse because it was easier and nurses make pretty good money too, some may have gone into administrative jobs in a hospital etc. Just depends on what you can do or what you want to do.
