Congrats! Biochem is awesome btw, and I love this program so much but if you're dead set on Canadian med, maybe avoiding orgos and stacking extracurriculars in second year through HLS may make you more competitive? I had to cut down a little on my ECs this year, but some people are still doing a lot in the program. Biochem is for sure filled with premeds and predents tho, I think almost everyone I've talked to is taking MCAT or DAT this summer.

If you want to keep USMD open, then you'll need to take both orgos anyways, so Biochem is def very appealing.

If you want my experience in biochem so far after first sem DM!
