President's Perspective:
John Buckle, P.Geo.
National licensure of geoscientists is a critical issue to APGO members,
as I believe it is for my fellow P.Geo members in the other professional
associations in Canada. As geoscientists, we are frequently called
upon to work at various locations around the province, the country
or the world; often at very short notice! The mobility of your professional
registration is a mission that the APGO is actively pursuing. We are
working to reach an inter-provincial mobility agreement through multi-jurisdictional
licensure across the country.
