About the CFMS
The CFMS is an organization representing over 8,000 medical students from 15 Canadian medical student societies from coast to coast. We represent medical students to the public, to the federal government, and to national and international medical organizations.Nominations are now open for the position of Vice-President of Communications of the Canadian Federation of Medical Students (CFMS). The role of VP Communications is currently vacant on the CFMS Executive and the elected individual will hold the position of VP Communications for a term lasting 5 months with re-election at the Annual General Meeting (AGM) in September 2017.
Interested individuals must forward their names and full contact information by email to Dr. Anthea Lafreniere, CFMS Past-President, at [email protected] by 5:00 PM CDT on Friday April 28, 2017. Any student member at any school may run.
The election will be held at the CFMS Spring General Meeting (SGM) which will be held April 28-29th, 2017 in Winnipeg, MB.
