The CMA is advocating that the trade of medical goods and medications be protected to avoid disruptions to patient care. Specifically, that the government:
Continue to ensure pharmaceutical products and medical devices are not included in any countermeasures on tariffs.
Improve safeguards for Canadian health data.
Improve labour mobility so physicians can work across the country.
Make it easier for qualified physicians to immigrate and work in Canada, including by fast-tracking immigration steps for US physicians.
