The purpose of this brief opinion piece is to start a conversation regarding the expectation for mobility, or relocation, in clinical psychology training in Canada. Expectations for mobility seem to have emerged from a combination of fears about academic inbreeding, structural training issues, and the assumption of American norms around going away to college. However, there is no data to indicate that these expectations are appropriate in our unique Canadian context. The potential benefits of mobility need to be weighed against the ensuing impacts it has on student well-being, as well as on enabling diversity within our training programs, and as a result, within our profession. Discussion of potential obstacles, ways forward, and the need for future research are also reviewed.
