I am not sure what everyone else thinks should happen but I don't think we should hand out a permit to practice based on the anecdotal evidence of I used to be an engineer/doctor in my home country. In Canada the term Engineer implies a certain level of education, training and responsibility and I think it is important to maintain that. The same goes with doctors, lawyers, land surveyors and other professions.
Heck, if someone came over who used to be a police officer in their home country does anyone think we should give them a gun and a badge without any testing or training to make sure they know the Canadian laws and procedures.

I agree with the rest of them, but not lawyers. I don't want to write another exam.
