The College of Family Physicians of Canada

What they're asking for

In the registry's own words. Descriptions are only filed for meetings since mid-2024.

1. Addressing administrative burden: Administrative burden consistently ranks as a top concern for family physicians. This time comes in the way of providing patient care. One of the significant sources of administrative burden for family physicians is filling out federal health forms.

2. Fulfill key investments to support family doctors, promised by the Liberal Party during the 2025 Federal elections. This includes initiatives to provide admin burden relief, set up a new FP practice fund, and create new residency seats.

3. Invest in family medicine by adding new family doctors and directing funding to expand training, have fair compensation, and other recruitment/retention measures.

4. Health Human Resources: encourage support for the College of Family Physician's goal of every Canadian having their own family physician. The College of Family Physicians of Canada is also recommending increased federal support for a pan-Canadian health human resources plan to strengthen primary care. Investment into Primary Health Care Transition Fund would help improve Canada-wide access to family practices and allied primary care.
