This is only a very basic guide for Ontario: http://www.ouac.on.ca/omsas/pdf/rc_omsas_e.pdf

I would recommend reading more into each school's individual requirements carefully.

I don't think it is required for McMaster.

EDIT: I just look at the McMaster website and McMaster does require MCAT for admission into med school. But it isnt that heavily weighted. You need to write the MCAT but Mac will only look at the score from the Verbal Reasoning section of the MCAT. The Physical Sciences, Biological Sciences and Writing Sample scores wont be considered in the selection process.

Mac does.

Ottawa and Northern (I believe) do not require MCATs.

Med school's just a lottery anyways, assuming you're just as good as any other average med school candidate.
