1) All Saints just on friday was recognized By House of Commons in Parliamnet of Canada, AUA was not

who cares? how does this affect the school? every caribbean school that can afford lobbyists in congress or has legislators on its board of directors can get "honored" by the legislative body - example here.

2) The president of Canuks Studying medicine Aboard goes to all saints

once again, who cares? apparently this president of canucks studying abroad didn't get into saba or another school that has a high placement rate in Canadian residency programs.

3) Students have already got recognized by American Thoracic Soceity , AUA students have gotten residency but thats only because the school is older.

I'm pretty sure it was one of your professors and not a student and awards like that are not uncommon even in the Caribbean.

4) premed in AUA and All Saints is the Same

Really, how so?

BUT THE MOST IMP factor for you is this
After extensive research:

AUA/KMC twinning program will not be recognized For Medical Counsel Of Canada (MCC) contact them your self they will tell you, even though they are NY approved.

I don't know what that means - "AUA/KMC .... will not be recognized". The school doesnt seek any special privileges under the twinning program, and therefore shouldn't have any more or less of a problem getting its alumni into residency in canada than any other foreign school.

5) AUA is way more expensive then All Saints and in the end you ll be the same DOC that you wanted to be.

No you won't - you can practice in fewer places if you do your rotations at All Saints. Until All Saints publishes evidence that it offers all Greenbook core rotations to all its clinical students, there is no reason to consider this school.
