Cornel, Canadian professional organizations do not recognize most foreign qualifications. One has to pass the local professional exams to get any Canadian designation. As a result, we have a lot of PhD's driving Taxi's in Toronto. Qualifications from India, China, Europe (with the exception of of someEnglish and French,) the USA, the Caribbean, S. America fall into the same category - non-Canadian qualification. Once you do get employment, there is little discrimination (at least in the financial field.)
