The Canadian Paediatric Society: its early years. 1980

J H Ebbs

The Canadian Paediatric Society has continued since its origin to be a consultative organization and has been recognized as the official voice for children in matters relating to health. It has appointed a number of special committees to study and recommend policy and action to the profession, government and other health bodies as new developments in child health have become important in Canada. The dedicated involvement of so many fellows of the society makes it apparent that in its nearly 60 years of existence it has lived up to the objectives of its founders.
