The entity that has initiated legal action against Dr. William Makis is the College of Physicians and Surgeons in Alberta.
In the legal documentation pictured below, the CPSA expresses opposition to Dr. William Makis using the title of "Dr." and also expresses opposition to him providing health services and/or prescribing anything.
The College of Physicians and Surgeons in Alberta, or CPSA, is governed by a council that includes physicians, public members, and representatives from Alberta’s medical schools. Funding is provided mainly through physician fees, although special projects may receive funding through various grant programs.
Who sits on CPSA Council?
A combination of physicians, Albertans and learners all bring their unique experiences and perspectives to CPSA Council. Members of CPSA council include:
- Physician members, elected by their medical colleagues
- Public members, appointed by Alberta’s Lieutenant-Governor in Council
- Medical school Deans from the University of Alberta and the University of Calgary
- Medical students and residents (non-voting observers)
The council currently includes the following individuals:
ELECTED PHYSICIAN MEMBERS
- Dr. Richard Buckley

The CPSA has meetings coming up on September 18 and 19 and on December 4 and 5.
One way to connect with the council chair is via email:
If you are interested in inquiring as to why the council of the College of Physicians and Surgeons in Alberta has initiated legal action against Dr. William Makis, I suggest messaging each member of the board directly via the website (link below). I do not suggest expressing hostility in your messaging; I suspect you will get better results if you merely come across as inquisitive. Be sure to be polite and professional in the tone of your inquiry. That is how you will get the best results.

- Special note:
Premier Danielle Smith does not control the CPSA council. The CPSA council operates independently. It is unreasonable for Dr. William Makis to blame Premier Danielle Smith for the legal action that was initiated by CPSA.

"Our board voted in favour of a motion supporting a leadership review of Premier Danielle Smith, a leadership review, not a motion to remove the premier, not a vote to replace Danielle Smith, and not an endorsement of anyone else's position about whether she should remain leader," said Highwood Constituency Association board member Tanya Clemens.
She made the comments in an X video posted on Friday, one day after the Highwood association passed a motion calling for Smith to face a review as UCP leader.
