For too long, a crumbling health system has been the norm. The CMA unites physicians who believe in a better future. Together, we’re advancing solutions to complex challenges in health, health care and the health workforce.
Membership brings together the medical profession and supports a strong national voice.
Join the movement
Change is possible. The CMA is committed to ambitious, long-term reform that bridges the gap between the health care we have and what health care should be.
We influence national, system-level change at the highest levels – in one-on-ones with federal leaders, at meetings of the Council of the Federation and with health ministers from across the country.
We also partner for impact with patients, community groups and dozens of health organizations.
Through our advocacy, we’ve made progress on:
Physician mobility to ease pressure on rural and remote providers and improve doctors’ work-life balance in every health care setting.
Integrated health workforce planning – our recommendations are reflected in a House of Commons report addressing Canada’s health workforce crisis.
Physician wellness and safety, including new legislation to protect all health care workers from harassment and abuse on the job.
