Friday, June 17, 1530–1630
Quebec Room, Ottawa Westin Hotel
This meeting will address concerns on the ill-defined relationships between the COS and the subspecialty societies that could potentially lead to liability for the COS, the subspecialty societies and for the Boards of Directors/leadership of both.
Working together, a number of issues will be discussed including: the legal status of the subspecialty societies (incorporated or unincorporated) and the risks and benefits of such status; the relationship between the COS and the subspecialty societies; and gaining a better understanding of how COS and the subspecialty societies can continue to work together to strengthen the collective voice for ophthalmology in Canada.
