I know few Chinese background immigrations join the CA firm, unless they worked for "Big four" before. However, I do know many Chinese CGA students get their senior position to be CGAs.

Talking about auditing, yes, if you want to be an auditor in Ontario, you have to be a CA. But how many CAs stay with auditing. Destination could be a limitation, but real limitation for an accountant, I think, is how far we want to go on our career path.

By the way, I like the discussion and learn a lot from all of you.
