Struggling to find money for medical school

Just as title says (for INTERNATIONAL MEDICAL SCHOOLS). Apparently, now going to medical school in Australia, Ireland, the Caribbean, USAMD, USADO is not feasible if you are not "well off".

TD has a high net worth policy for their medical line of credit, and RBC, Scotia, CIBC, require an extensive banking relationship and a cosigner income of 200k+ with little debt.

I have tried credit unions, big banks, etc. RBC says I can maybe get 200k, CIBC said I can't apply because I don't bank with them, TD says I need to have 250k in cash to even apply, and other banks look at income, which needs to be pretty high (200k+)

HELOC is not an option as parents have poor credit and income.

What are my options that I am not considering?

Pending acceptance to Aus and the Caribbean, and have a USDO acceptance.

Family medicine salary for Canada vs. United States - Which is better?

I am seeing so many conflicting numbers. I just want to know which is better for my future especially if I am going to be 400k in debt. I am looking to pursue family medicine and have an acceptance to a DO school and waitlisted in Canada for context.

Seeing things like FM makes $500k+ in Canada and $250k-$300k in the States. Is this true?
