School of Epidemiology and Health Sciences, University of Manchester, Oxford Road, Manchester M13 9PL

Previous articles have dealt with aspects of training in Canada (Green, 1985), and in particular arrangements that exist for UK trainees to undertake a year's experience in Nova Scotia (Munro et al 1987). In addition, there have been accounts of trainees' experiences in particular settings (Ferguson, 1989; Gojo, 1992). Procedures required to enter Canada to practise psychiatry are complex and involve general and specialist medical registration (licensure to practise and certification as a specialist), remuneration and immigration procedures. This article is an introductory guide and highlights recent changes in registration and postgraduate training.
