ngl, having seen what passes as a canadian professional engineer a lot of times, I don't think our licensure system really does much to make sure people who are licensed are actually competent.
Sometimes I see people sticking their noses in the air, like "Oh, we're the high class engineers, not like those third world engineers" then you see if someone ever built what they engineered it'd blow up or fall down, and it's like "why do we even bother with all this shit then?"
And apparently it's like "Oh, but they're responsible for their designs" -- bullshit. With the incompetence I've seen the last few years, every engineer would be living in a shopping cart if they had to take responsibility for their work.

Most I've seen around these parts is an industrialization of college careers that have resulted in a lot of people with degrees. Results will diminish in big number of students in education, as always.
@sj_zero The Romans required an architect to live in the building he designed for some period of time. This after a hastily built amphitheater collapsed and killed a huge number of people.
