Join us in Winnipeg on May 26-27, 2025, for Choosing Wisely Canada’s National Meeting, in collaboration with the Canadian Medical Association.

This year’s National Meeting theme, Less, but Better, challenges us to think beyond simply doing less. Ultimately, it’s about doing better—for patients, for the health care system, for the planet.

This edition of our annual meeting will take place over two days, packed with captivating speakers, networking opportunities, and ideas for tackling common overuse challenges in Canadian health systems.

Why you’ll want to attend:

• Engage with the Choosing Wisely community in a lively exchange of ideas on tackling overuse
• Hear about practical and implementable strategies for reducing overuse, and understand their impact
• Network with colleagues who share a commitment to reducing overuse

What you’ll learn:

• How to translate and apply best practices for reducing overuse in health care in their clinical settings
• How to design effective approaches for evaluating interventions related to reducing overuse
• How to develop strategies to share successful interventions across their health care organization
