Criticism of the medical compensation system and CMPA influence
Patient advocates and legal commentators criticized Canada’s tort-based system for compensating only a small share of patients injured by negligent care. Some critics described the CMPA as a powerful institutional barrier for claimants because of its legal resources and perceived political influence. These criticisms formed part of a public policy dispute rather than a documented finding of corporate misconduct.
