Most applicants for admission to medicine in Canada have at least a BSc in one of the biological sciences.  Admission is very competitive...for every seat there are about 150 applicants.  It is not uncommon for someone to apply 3-4 years running...most put in their time by getting an MSc or some further degree to help with their CV when applying.  There are a number of faculties of medicine in Canada...the largest being the University of Toronto...it is allied with 7 teaching hospitals and every specialty and sub-specialty is taught here.
