NDoA 2025 🍁 A special thanks to our NDoA committee for all their hard work in making this year’s NDoA: Emergency Department Wait Times, a HUGE success!

This year, we had 67 delegates who met with close to 50 MPs and Senators to discuss CFMS’ recommendations on improving healthcare for Canadians. Our NDoA committee was also able to meet with the Prime Ministers Office and the Parliamentary Secretariat to the Minister of Health.

All of this would not have been possible without all of our amazing medical student delegates who travelled from across Canada to Ottawa, ON to meet with MPs and Senators. We would also like to thank all the MPs and Senators who made time to meet with us and discuss our recommendations.

____________________________________

Un grand merci à notre comité du NDoA pour tout le travail exceptionnel réalisé afin de faire de l’édition de cette année — Les temps d’attente aux services d’urgence — un immense succès!

Cette année, 67 délégué·e·s ont rencontré près de 50 député·e·s, sénateurs et sénatrices pour discuter des recommandations de la FEMC visant à améliorer les soins de santé pour la population canadienne. Notre comité du NDoA a également pu rencontrer le Cabinet du premier ministre ainsi que le Secrétariat parlementaire de la ministre de la Santé.

Rien de tout cela n’aurait été possible sans nos incroyables étudiant·e·s en médecine qui ont voyagé de partout au pays jusqu’à Ottawa (Ontario) pour rencontrer les député·e·s, les sénateurs et les sénatrices. Nous tenons également à remercier tous les député·e·s, sénateurs et sénatrices qui ont pris le temps de nous rencontrer et de discuter de nos recommandations.
