To whom it may concern,

I am writing regarding the issue of licensure for Canadian-trained dental professionals in the Commonwealth of Virginia. In my view it seems that a Canadian-trained dental professional that undergoes the rigors of the same National Boards that American-trained dental professionals go through should be afforded the same opportunity for employment. Given that there is an existing reciprocal agreement between CODA and CDAC, it seems to me the spirit behind this agreement is for just this purpose. 

Thank you,
