THE OFFICIAL VOICE OF THE ORDER

Trust in the CPA’s signature is immutable

A CPA’s signature, regardless of the document on which it is affixed, is a seal of reliability that inspires trust among the public. Therefore, it should not be taken lightly.

When visiting clients living in certain designated facilities, you may be affected by the mandatory vaccination decree.

The Quebec government has recently adopted a mandatory vaccination decree to protect the health of the population. Therefore, if you work in a facility run by a health and social services institution, an intermediate resource or a family-type resource in which you are likely to be in direct or indirect contact with a vulnerable person, or if you must visit such facilities to meet a client, you must be able to prove that you are adequately protected.

READ THE DECREE

Phishing attempts by phone or online are no different!

Some of you have reported receiving calls from individuals claiming to be financial institution representatives, saying that they must update your profile due to a new federal law and that their call is tied to the Order. This is clearly a phishing scam, and you should be cautious when receiving these types of calls.

This Cyber Security Awareness Month, we would like to remind you that if a person or company contacts you, by phone or online, and claims to have obtained your contact information from the Order, you should exercise the utmost caution. Please note that we do not provide your personal information without your consent. If you ever have any doubts, contact us by email at info@cpaquebec.ca or by phone at 514 288-3256 or 1 800 363-4688.
