Across the country, mask mandates are changing. Therefore, wearing masks indoors in public places may not be required in many provinces. While the CPC recommends that members wear a mask while performing close contact services with patients, the board also believes it is important that we respect the choices of people, businesses and one another so long as choices made do not contradict local and provincial guidelines.
If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact us.
Sincerely,
THE COLLEGE OF PEDORTHICS OF CANADA
