Need advice where the Best Medical Staffing Agencies are in Canada?

Any advice on any excellent Medical Staffing Agencies OR Hospitals which are HIRING?

I'm currently a National Medical Recruiter for Hospitals in the United States.

Thanks.

I know of a few towns that are very short of doctors, Sudbury Ontario is the largest cancer center but need more doctors so they can operate at full force. Then all the smaller surrounding towns are also crying for doctors. There was a write up in a Toronto newspaper adverticsing some of the incentives they are offering in Sudbury.

In Canada, healthcare is administered by the government (provincial governments) and generally the provincial government divides the province into health regions which are responsible for hospitals, primary healthcare clinics, public health clinics, some nursing homes, etc within that region. As such, there aren't too many private recruiting agencies. The health regions themselves do the recruiting....and they're all hiring because like everywhere else, we have a severe nursing shortage. The largest academic health region in Canada is Capital Health in the Edmonton area, their careers page is at https://www.capitalhealth.ca/Careers/default.htm. They are recruiting internationally as well as locally - I don't know if they need more recruiters, but it's worth checking out. Also, there is a company called Trillium Human Resources who recruit within Canada on behalf of some health regions.
