Petition Update: We recently spoke with a CBC journalist investigating CAP’s EPPP policy. CAP informed the journalist that individuals may be able to reapply five years after deregistration—but there is no mention if this in writing.
Here’s what the journalist confirmed:
- This supposed reapplication pathway is not reflected in CAP’s published policies (RP013a or RP013b)
- It is not mentioned in the Summer 2025 CAP Monitor
- CAP may be referencing something discussed internally (e.g., a Council meeting), but the 2025 minutes have not been made public
- Based on the journalist’s understanding of CAP’s comments, the only potential route back would involve restarting completely, earning a new PhD, completing 1,600 additional hours, and going through the entire registration process again
- Because CAP has said on the record that the policy is not a permanent ban — and in the absence of named sources or documentation — CBC cannot report that it is
- This contradicts the real experiences of multiple registrants who have received formal CAP emails stating they are permanently removed from the register and cannot reapply.
📩 We Need Your Help
To counter this shifting narrative, we’re collecting emails from anyone who has been told they are permanently ineligible after failing the EPPP.
If you’ve received such a message: Please send it (redacted if you wish) to albertapetitioneppp@gmail.com
If you’re uncomfortable editing it, we can redact it for you and return it for approval
This documentation is essential. CAP is suggesting flexibility to the media while enforcing career-ending consequences behind the scenes—especially for equity-deserving professionals.
Thank you for standing with us. Your voice matters, and your experience matters.
Sincerely,
