Did you know?

Physicians, along with family and friends, are the most trusted sources of information on climate change and environmental issues. In fact, latest polls show that trust in physicians as messengers outpaces politicians, corporate execs, media, and even the UN by a considerable margin—regardless of what province you live in.

CAPE has physician-led committees in British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Newfoundland and Labrador, and the Northwest Territories.
