US RN to Alberta?
" The selection of NCLEX by Canadian nursing regulators marks the first time that the exam will be used for the purpose of licensure in another country.” Note: " another country " ( referring to Canada ) which means identical exam with U.S. Therefore, I assume you can endorse your U.S. license to any of the 10 Canadian provinces. IMHO.

US RN to Alberta?
Beginning January 2014, Canada will start using NCLEX as oppose to CRNE. Why not work as PSW ( or CNA in the US ) first for a year ($20/hr) then endorse your US license to Canada on Jan 2014. It may save you time, money, and stress. Just my 2 cents. click: Canadian RN Exam: Canadian Nurses to be licensed using NCLEX! -Update

If you're trying to achieve, there will be roadblocks. I've had them; everybody has had them. But obstacles don't have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it. Michael Jordan Read more at http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/authors/m/michael_jordan.html#rLac8x0spU2t7wkf.99

Failed NCLEX RN 3 times, 2012
I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed. Michael Jordan

I turned down a management job
"Society's plan of attack is to create dissatisfaction, to convince us that we must be in a constant pursuit for something "out there" that is sure to bring us happiness. Contentment is possible when we stop striving for more " - Charles Swindoll. Godliness actually is a means of great gain when accompanied by contentment - 1 Tim. 6:6

Why do so many nurses from the Philippines come to Canada/USA?
The First Nations Indians were the first settlers of Canada before the Europeans immigrated to Canada. If you are one of the decendants of First Nations Indians then you have the authority to be upset to all people who are immigrating to Canada. Additionally, why not ask your fellow Canadian nurses who are working in the US on NAFTA-TN visa if they are stealing the jobs that should belong to Americans ? Should the American new grad nurses also blame the Canadian nurses because they can't find a job to pay their student loans and putting food on the table to feed their families ?

nyc rate for new rn(homecare)?
Beggars can't be choosers. One should appreciate if God blessed us with a job that will pay our bills and put food on our table. Obtain the experience and move on later to a better opportunity in the future.

What do you think of the nursing schools that churn out graduates in a instant...?
who cares if you have ADN as oppose to BSN/MSN/PHd or 2.0 GPA instead of 4.0, bottomline is you pass NCLEX and have the right connections to get hired after graduation. Just my 2 cents.

B.S.N. vs. Biology? Which one is more challenging?
I have BS degrees in biology, nursing, and MBA as well. I recently obtained my BSN for a career change after working many years in corporate world. Based on my experience, nursing is more difficult than biology because of the clinicals. Moreover, you need to pass the NCLEX exam after obtaining your degree before you can practice your profession.
