Canadian Medical Association As one of the country’s most influential national health organizations, the Canadian Medical Association (CMA) plays a central role in shaping the future of health care in Canada. Founded the same year as the nation itself, the CMA unites physicians across the country, advocates for system transformation, and champions the public interest. In a rapidly evolving health‑care landscape, the CMA is strengthening its enterprise capabilities to deliver even greater impact for physicians and patients alike.
