Addressing the needs of the Canadian COPD patient

COPD Canada

A National COPD Patient's Advocacy Association

COPD Canada is a non-profit patient advocacy association that was established in 2005 and operates independently. Our association is dedicated to providing educational materials to individuals in Canada who are affected by Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). 

At the core of COPD Canada lies our commitment to building, advocating for, and maintaining a national community of patients burdened with COPD. We strive to enhance public awareness and visibility of this condition throughout the nation. To achieve this, we offer various educational resources in different formats, employing diverse delivery methods.

If you wish to join COPD Canada, we invite you to click on the following link: MEMBERSHIP. It is important to note that membership is free-of-charge and available to individuals diagnosed with COPD or their caregivers. As a valued member of COPD Canada, you will receive complimentary printed copies of our community newsletter, titled "LIVING WITH COPD."  

COPD Canada diligently reviews and interprets the latest scientific and medical advancements related to emphysema and chronic bronchitis from reputable sources worldwide. Through these efforts, we ensure that up-to-date information, presented in easily understandable language, is readily accessible to Canadians coping with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. 

We also monitor the latest scientific and medical abstracts related to COPD that are published in PubMed. The abstracts that we deem noteworthy are condensed into digest format. Our clinical editors then comment on these abstracts. The results are published in a sponsored clinical newsletter known as "The COPD Digest."  This valuable resource is distributed exclusively to all Canadian respirologists as well as select members of the Canadian medical profession (GP/FMs) and government agencies.
