Hi Patricia,
Because the rights granted by the Quebec Government to its English-speaking minority guarantee that anglophones have access to medical services in their own language, the Health Ministry maintains in the province dozens of institutions which are nominally English, most of which are located in Montreal. Whether in an institutional setting or in private practice, when consulting a medical professional, the patients always decide what language is used. As a result, anglophone psychologists in Montreal can draw from a pool of several hundred thousand potential patients to build their practice.
However, the crucial element to take into account in your husband's situation is that the professional corporation which regulates the practice in Quebec does not necessarily grant a license to an applicant when his or her psychology diploma was earned overseas. Please click here to find out more.
