PaRx: CMA endorsement

Jul 19, 2023

The Canadian Medical Association (CMA) endorsed Canada’s national nature prescription program, PaRx, in December 2022.

PaRx was already endorsed by major provincial health partners like the Alberta Medical Association, BC Family Doctors, Ontario College of Family Physicians and Collège des médecins du Québec.

Registered prescribers can prescribe one free Parks Canada Discovery Pass per month to patients, prioritizing those who would benefit most and live near the parks.

You can register to become a prescriber online or learn more about the program on the prescribers web page.
