Toronto, Canada – 2017
The Toronto Congress was a huge success! More than 900 delegates participated representing over 60 nationalities. Thank you to all who attended. The participation in the sessions was very impressive, particularly of the early morning activities.
The inaugural and relatively new tracks were well-received such as Pharmacy, Situational Awareness, Veterinary Medicine and Animal Welfare, Le programme francophone, ED Overcrowding and Access to Care, and Emergency Radiology, just to name a few.
Many sessions throughout the Congress were standing room only!
