Hosted by the Canadian Cardiovascular Society (CCS) and the Heart and Stroke Foundation, the Canadian Cardiovascular Congress (CCC) is the largest gathering of cardiovascular and allied health professionals in Canada.

Cardiologists, cardiovascular surgeons, researchers, nurses and other cardiovascular specialists from across Canada and around the globe come to CCC to connect with other members of the cardiovascular team, to discover how to incorporate the latest science into their practice and to attend cutting-edge, accredited education sessions.


NEW Deadline to Submit your Workshop

Following the ever-changing realities that we are facing with COVID-19, the Scientific Program Committee Executive has made the decision to extend the deadline for Workshop submissions for CCC 2020 until Monday, May 4, 2020.


COVID-19 and the CCC2020

As of March 11, 2020, the Canadian Cardiovascular Congress in Edmonton from October 22 to 25 is set to proceed as planned.

The public health risk associated with COVID-19 has been assessed by the Public Health Agency of Canada as low for the general population in Canada but cautions this could change rapidly. As such, we’re developing contingency plans so that we’re prepared for various possible scenarios.

We look forward to Congress every year as an important opportunity to bring the Canadian cardiovascular community together. We’re looking into various options including a modified in-person meeting or virtual delivery, so that we don’t miss the chance to connect with each other.

The health and wellbeing of our members, staff, attendees, suppliers and industry supporters is a top priority. CCS will provide updates on our Congress plans as the situation evolves.
