I don't know anybody from these two countries.
Aren't you going to consider the UK too?

I think in general, the UK has the best medical programs right after the US. However, what sucks about going to foreign medical schools would be that (A) you'll have less priorities for residencies in the US if you ever somehow get back into the US (B) you'll have to cross a lot of red tape to somehow practice medicine in the US one day.

The general rule of thumb to make life easier would be to go to a medical school in a country that you wish to practice medicine... I'd like to go to a US medical school but if I'm unable to, I'd probably go to a medical school in the UK since they have amazing PhD-MD programs...

In addition, going to a Canadian medical school might be bad for you if you already have a bachelors, since there are people who enter medical school directly in Canada. In fact, a MD is considered a bachelors degree in Canada.. You will be years behind your fellow prospective doctors in Canada. Of course there are a good number of people who get degrees in sciences before applying to bolster their application.. but there are always some stellar students who'll be lightyears ahead of you.

As for me, I'm going to finish my degree in California, then see where it takes me. If all goes badly, I'll probably move to the UK.

Anyways.. thank you so much for the information you always provide me!
No problem! Also, I'm not too sure, but I heard Canada has one of the lowest average salaries for doctors/health professions. I think the salary goes from UK > Canada > Australia.

For me, judging by opportunity, programs, and income, I'd probably go to the UK.

Mexico. So i could perhaps work along side this guy --> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miguel_Alcubierre, the father of the Alcubierre Warp Drive. If you have a sound education (especially in the sciences (in particular physics and chemistry) or engineering (this includes CS)) you could pretty much work and live comfortably almost anywhere in the world. I know from personal relatives, that had no need to come to the states. For example, i don't know if you guys have heard of this guy ----> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miguel_de_Icaza, but he is the founder of the open source GNOME project that runs atop many unix based operating systems. Like i said, pursuing the sciences or Engineering is a great advantage in this world, and if you happen to be one of the best in this game, the skies the limit. My professor and mentor who just recently came from Europe is another great example of this; global economy. So is Elon Musk, which i'm sure you guys have heard of. He's only the biggest news out there right now.
