Extract
A previous article in the Bulletin describes the ‘BTC’ (Been to Canada) scheme sponsored by the Nova Scotia Department of Health to bring psychiatric trainees to Canada in order to undertake a year's clinical work in addition to ongoing medical education under the auspices of the Department of Psychiatry at Dalhousie University. Over the years the scheme has attracted a number of graduates, some of whom have been prompted to stay on and develop rewarding careers. The original article by Munro and colleagues (1987) describes the programme from the sponsor's perspective and might well be complemented by this account from a BTC graduate who has now returned to the National Health Service.
