Thanks for the help! I really appreciate the responses.

I'm a Canadian interested in pursuing a career in nursing and in particular as a CRNA...but it seems to me that might not be possible in Canada because, while there is a ton of information on CRNAs in the US, I can't seem to find any info on the net about Canadian CRNAs. There is an old post on this forum about the same topic...but I know that the laws have changed since then so I dont want to rely on it. Can someone tell me IF any such programs have been introduced in Canada in the past few years? Or if, the government is THINKING of introducing such programs? And if so, where? Thanks!

I'm a 28 year-old Canadian considering a career in Nursing, in particular becoming a NP, and am currently doing some research on the subject to see if it's really what I'm looking for. I'm interested in the social aspect of nursing, ie, patient care, but am also looking for something that will challenge me and require exercising strong problem solving skills and independence. What kinds of skills does a good NP need to have? Will I find what I'm looking for as a NP? Or will I only find what I'm looking for through a career in medicine? I'm interested in hearing from NPs from both the US and Canada, especially from Montreal, if there are any out there. I'd also like to know what kinds of prospects are there for NPs in Canada. Is it difficult to find a job? It seems to me that there is a lot of reluctance in Canada to offer positions to NPs. Am I mistaken? Thanks!
