The Advocis GR team anticipates joining colleagues from the Advocis LRA team in working closely with the FCAA and key government officials over the coming months and years to work out the details and ensure we get the regulation right. Conclusion This was a year to adapt to the “new normal”. Thanks to the hard work of our advocacy volunteers and our colleagues from across Advocis, our GR efforts were successfully adapted to this change. Interest in advocacy is growing. Our PACs and Chapters are becoming more closely connected. Momentum is building towards setting a higher professional bar for financial advice. Throughout it all, our GR team never lost sight of our key advocacy objective: To encourage governments and regulators across the country to #RaiseTheBar for Canadians by protecting the title of “financial advisor”. Doing so not only elevates the trust and stature of financial advisors as true professionals, but also ensures that families can be confident in their choice of financial advisor as not just anyone is permitted to use the title.
