If you end up in British Columbia and you want somewhere that isn’t Vancouver but still gives you ocean, mountains, a real hospital, and a community that is genuinely glad you showed up, look at Vancouver Island — and our community of Nanaimo.

The cost of living is significantly lower than major cities. The scenery is the kind that makes people question every choice that kept them somewhere else. And the Healthcare Infusion initiative started here specifically to help internationally trained health workers land well, connect with the community, and feel at home faster.
