Tony, you obviously haven't been in Ottawa long enough yet. Expensiveness and importance are completely independent bureaucratic variables...

Passing the exam allows us to call ourselves Licentiates of the Medical Council of Canada.

...

Which is to say, it is a hoop. We have gone through it. Many more remain. Such is life.

Congrats to you both!!

Now refresh my memory: what exactly does this exam entitle either of you to do? I checked the older posts, but it still wasn't clear to me. It's gotta be important if it's that expensive, right...?

Par,

That's just like the pastry we know as the Danish. As per Wikipedia:

"Danish pastry is, like the croissant, said to originate from Vienna and is called wienerbrød (Danish pronunciation: [ˈʋiˑʔnɔˌb̥ʁœˑʔð], lit. "Viennese bread" (corresponding to the French Viennoiserie) in Denmark as well as Finland, Iceland, the Faroe Islands, Norway and Sweden. In Vienna, however, the pastry is known as "Golatschen", and its origin may well be the Turkish baklava[1] like the Strudel. Both the croissant and Danish are laminated doughs, and as such are categorized as Viennoiserie products."
