The Medical Council of Canada (MCC) has launched a new Licensure Pathway Navigation Service to help internationally trained physicians better understand the pathways to medical practice that may be available to them in Canada.

This free, one-time virtual consultation gives eligible participants an opportunity to speak with a licensure navigation specialist about their individual circumstances, explore relevant pathways, ask questions, and identify helpful information and possible next steps.

The service is currently being offered as a pilot in English and French, with limited availability. Interested physicians can complete an Expression of Interest to find out whether they meet the initial eligibility criteria.

In recognition of the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation and Orange Shirt Day, our WILL team came together for a moment of learning and reflection.

Staff were invited to consider one simple question: “What is one small thing I can do to support reconciliation in my everyday life?”

Through our “I can…” reflections, we shared personal commitments to continue listening, learning, challenging assumptions and taking meaningful action.

Today, we honour the children who never returned home, Survivors, their families and communities, while recognizing that reconciliation is something we can continue to advance through our everyday actions.

As we approach the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation on September 30, we’re taking time to learn, reflect, and honour the Survivors, families, and communities affected by the residential school system.

September 30 is an opportunity to learn more about the history of residential schools, the broader impacts and ongoing legacy of colonization, and the experiences and perspectives of First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples. It is also a time to consider what reconciliation can look like in our workplaces and communities, and how we can continue to take meaningful action throughout the year.

If you’re looking for ways to learn or participate in London and beyond, there are a number of resources and local events available.

Resources for learning and reflection:
• The National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation (NCTR) offers educational resources, Survivor stories, archives, and information about residential schools and reconciliation: https://nctr.ca
• The London Public Library has reading lists and local resources featuring Indigenous authors, history, and perspectives on reconciliation: https://www.lpl.ca/truth-and-reconciliation
• The City of London, Ontario - Municipal Government has information about local events and opportunities to learn and reflect on September 30: https://london.ca/national-day-truth-reconciliation

Local events on September 30:
• Western University is hosting a Sunrise Ceremony and Sacred Fire at the Wampum Learning Lodge, as well as Allyship in the AM, an opportunity to explore allyship and respectful approaches to research and reconciliation: https://www.uwo.ca/events/index.html
• Fanshawe College is hosting Approachable Conversations with an Indigenous Man, a conversation focused on listening, learning, and reflecting on Truth and Reconciliation: https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/approachable-conversations-with-an-indigenous-man-tickets-1999530951903

While September 30 is an important day to pause and remember, reconciliation is an ongoing process. We can continue that learning throughout the year and consider how it connects to the relationships we build, the workplaces we create, and the communities we are part of.
