It would appear there is support and approval of Traditional Chinese Medicine by the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario (CPSO). The following PDF from the CPSO offers support with recommendations for a 2006 bill overseeing Traditional Chinese Medicine, of which Acupuncture is one part. http://www.cpso.on.ca/uploadedFiles/down… From a 2009 Inter-professional Collaboration report submitted to the Minister of Health the CPSO states the following: The CPSO supports HPRAC’s suggestion that the emergence of TCM is an opportunity for existing colleges whose members perform acupuncture to undertake an interdisciplinary review of their standards to ensure that they demand the highest level of safety and quality. http://www.cpso.on.
