Physician Licence: Moving from Northwest Territories to Manitoba
The short answer
Direct transfer
Physicians licensed in another Canadian province or territory may apply for an equivalent certificate of registration in Manitoba based on their current out-of-province licence, although usual credentialing requirements and fees still apply. Source
“This allows applicants to apply based on holding a current Canadian out-of-province licence, rather than on holding the specific postgraduate Canadian qualifications that CPSM would otherwise require. Note, however, that the usual credentialing requirements and fees still apply.”
