| Abstract: | The France-Québec Mutual Recognition Arrangements (MRAs) innovate by collectively recognizing eligible professionals trained in France. Through case studies, we have analysed entry into 8 regulated professions in Quebec: nurses, medical doctors, pharmacists, social workers, architects, lawyers and 2 engineering specialties. Our analysis suggests that a set of intrinsic and extrinsic factors related to a profession, are causing either a positive or negative effect on foreign-trained professionals’ appraisal of their entry into their regulated profession in Quebec. As an agreement seeking to encourage professional mobility between France and Quebec, the MRAs foreshadow challenges associated with eventual Canada-Europe arrangements. |
