Sask Medical Assoc.

The Saskatchewan Medical Association is the voice of Saskatchewan's doctors. Our members are the physicians, residents and medical students of the province.

Event Jan. 27/25: The prorogation of Parliament has left the approval of increases to capital inclusion rates in limbo – which directly affects doctors with medical corporations. @CMA_Docs President Dr. Joss Reimer will talk about how the CMA is advocating for the profession now, and in the countdown to the next federal election. The event will also include information from accounting firm MNP about the current state we find ourselves in. Simone Reitzes, Managing Director of the Medicus Pension Plan, established by MD Financial Management Inc. and Scotiabank, will be available to answer questions as well.
