@OntariosDoctors have been engaged on this issue since the very beginning and have been supporting Dr. Ma through this entire process. We have also been working closely with @CMPAMembers and have ensured that the OMA provided testimony on behalf of Dr. Ma during this hearing.

Thanks @BillWmccready for all you have given over your decades long career in Northern Ontario. You have been here since the start of my residency in TBay - a constant of my career. I am grateful for your patient care, your commitment to #meded and to @thenosm♥️

He’s a lion of the north. He will be missed dearly at @thenosm and by all his patients in the northwest. #retirement
