From Oct. 2 to 30, eligible regulated members were invited to vote for one of five candidates to fill one regulated member opening for CPSA’s governing Council. We thank all five candidates and those who nominated their colleagues for this year’s election. We also thank everyone who took the time to cast their votes and have their voices heard—your engagement helps shape the future of medical regulation and is appreciated!

We are excited to welcome Dr. Nahla Gomaa as the newly elected Councillor whose term will start on Jan. 1, 2025. We look forward to Dr. Gomaa’s contributions as a valued member of CPSA Council.
