A word about self-regulated bodies. Lawyers are regulated by the Law Society of
Saskatchewan. A body of lawyers
regulating the conduct of their own.
Judges are more difficult to deal with respecting any
misconduct. If one is not pleased with a
judge for whatever reason they can file a written complaint to the Canadian
Judicial Council. If you don’t agree
with their decision you can make an application at the Federal Court for
Judicial Review of the Canadian Judicial Councils decision. This would be judge’s ruling against judges. How well will that work for you as a mere
citizen?
The Saskatchewan Medical Association and the College of
Physicians and Surgeons both play an important role in monitoring and managing
complaints respecting practicing physicians and Surgeons. If you are concerned with any misconduct
respecting doctors, Surgeons or any other person acting as a professional within
the health care system then you are well advised to write a letter to either
the SMA or the College and they will instruct you as to your appropriate course
of action.
