Description of Activities:
The Canadian Medical Association (CMA) is the national professional advocacy organization representing physicians in every jurisdiction. The CMA unites over 85,000 members physicians on national health and medical matters. Formed in Quebec City in 1867, the CMA's rich history of advocacy led to some of Canada's most important health policy developments. As we look to the future, the CMA will focus on advocating for a healthy population and a vibrant profession. Advocacy is at the core of the CMA's business. The mission of Canada's doctors is empowering and caring for patients. The CMA engages in advocacy with federal, provincial and territorial governments as we advance our vision for a vibrant profession and a healthy population.

  • Descriptions of the organization's activity in previous versions:
    • The CMA is a national, voluntary association of physicians that advocates on behalf of its members and the public for access to high-quality health care. The CMA also provides leadership and guidance to physicians. The CMA was formed in Quebec City in 1867, just three months after the birth of Canada. It was created by 164 physicians who recognized the need for a national medical body. They selected Sir Charles Tupper, who would later serve as Canada's prime minister, as the first president. Today the CMA has more than 83,000 members, and lobbies vigorously on behalf of both members and their patients; on Parliament Hill, during federal election campaigns and in the media. The CMA also takes the lead on public health issues. The CMA's goal is to ensure the survival and robust health of Canada's medicare system in the face of numerous challenges.
