CARB-TCMPA（Canadian Alliance of Regulatory Bodies of TCM Practitioners and Acupuncturists）管理全加拿大中医执照考试（Pan-Canadian Examinations），所有人必须通过才能执业。成员：BC, Alberta, Ontario, Quebec, Newfoundland 的监管 College。CARB-TCMPA manages all Pan-Canadian TCM licensing exams. Members: regulatory colleges from BC, Alberta, Ontario, Quebec, and Newfoundland.

Alberta, NL, Quebec 也是 Council Member/Chair/President + CEO 组合 — 这是 CARB 的通行做法。BC 是唯一例外 — 两个代表都是 staff，确保 CARB 决策不受 Council 政治影响。AB, NL, QC also send Council Chair/President + CEO — this is the standard CARB model. BC is the only exception — both reps are staff, insulating CARB from Council politics.

根据 CTCMPAO By-Law，CEO 的任命和薪资调整均需 Council 投票通过。但 Sean Cassman 从 Manager 晋升为 Registrar & CEO 的整个过程在公开渠道没有任何记录可查。Per CTCMPAO By-Laws, CEO appointment and salary changes require Council approval. However, Sean Cassman's entire promotion from Manager to Registrar & CEO has no public trail.

Sean 此前的职位是 "Manager, Policy & Governance"，属于 CTCMPAO 内部中层。从中层晋升为 CEO 且同年获得22.8%的涨薪，在一个正常运作的监管机构中会经历：(a) 公开招聘，(b) 外部候选人比较，(c) Council 公开投票并记录结果，(d) 向会员通报。CTCMPAO 的任命没有经过以上任何一步。Sean's prior role was "Manager, Policy & Governance" — an internal mid-level position. Promoting a mid-level manager to CEO and raising their salary 22.8% in the same year would normally involve: (a) public recruitment, (b) external candidate comparison, (c) a recorded Council vote, (d) member notification. None of these happened at CTCMPAO.

1. CTCMPAO 自己的文档承认："all votes are noted by the minute taker, and a simple majority is required to pass a motion." — 说明内部有完整投票记录，只是刻意不对外公开。1. CTCMPAO's own documents state: "all votes are noted by the minute taker, and a simple majority is required to pass a motion." — internal records exist; they are deliberately withheld from the public.
2. 全站搜索17年文档：关键词 "dissenting / defeated / opposed / roll call" 零结果。2. Site-wide search of 17 years of documents: keywords "dissenting / defeated / opposed / roll call" return zero results.
3. 5 / 6 同类 College 都公开动议原文 + CARRIED/DEFEATED 结果。CTCMPAO 是唯一例外。3. 5 of 6 peer colleges publish motion text + CARRIED/DEFEATED results. CTCMPAO is the sole exception.
逻辑推论：Logical inference: 17年公开文档中从未出现任何一次"反对票"或"动议被否决"的记录。这只有两种可能：In 17 years of public documents, not a single "dissenting vote" or "defeated motion" is recorded. There are only two possibilities:
无论哪种情况，都指向严重的治理失职。Either way, this points to a serious governance failure.
CTCMPAO 应按照 CMTO / COTO / CCO / CRPO / OCP 的通行做法，公开完整的 Council Meeting Minutes，包括动议原文、提议人/附议人、CARRIED/DEFEATED 结果。这是会员缴纳 $1,300 年费有权得到的基本问责。CTCMPAO should follow the standard practice of CMTO / COTO / CCO / CRPO / OCP by publishing complete Council Meeting Minutes including motion text, movers/seconders, and CARRIED/DEFEATED results. Members paying $1,300 annual fees are entitled to this basic accountability.
CPMF 2024 数据显示 CY2024 有 3起 Registrar's Investigation。根据 RHPA s.75(1)(a)，这是 Registrar (Sean) 自己发起的调查，不需要有人投诉。3,300个注册会员中，Sean 选了3个人发起调查。这个权力是否被恰当使用，公开数据无法证实也无法排除。CPMF 2024 shows 3 Registrar's Investigations in CY2024. Per RHPA s.75(1)(a), these are initiated by the Registrar (Sean) without external complaints. Out of 3,300 registrants, Sean chose 3 for investigation. Whether this power is used appropriately — public data can neither confirm nor deny.
90th percentile 处理时间：Registrar's Investigation 536个工作日（超过2年），即使排除平行刑事诉讼仍需 390个工作日。90th percentile processing time: Registrar's Investigation 536 working days (over 2 years), even excluding parallel criminal proceedings: 390 working days.
CTCMPAO By-Law 7.05:
"The term of office of the President and Vice-President commences immediately following their election and expires upon the election of the new President and Vice-President at the first regular meeting of the newly elected Council in the following year."
President 任期约1年（至新Council首次例会换届时届满），每年重新选。By-Law 没有限制 President 可以连任多少次。Presidential term is approximately 1 year (expires at first meeting of newly elected Council). The By-Law sets no limit on consecutive re-elections.

By-Law 10.01(iii):
"A member of Council or its Committees shall be perceived to have a conflict of interest in a matter, if he or she holds a responsible position such as director, owner, board member or officer for, or is an employee of a Professional Association."
关键词是 "shall be perceived" — 不是说实际有冲突才算，而是只要外界看起来有冲突就算。The key phrase is "shall be perceived" — not actual conflict, but the appearance of one is sufficient.

同时 chair QA（评估质量）和 chair ICRC（处理投诉）意味着：她先判定你"不达标"，然后她处理你的"不达标"投诉。裁判和法官是同一个人。Chairing both QA (quality assessment) and ICRC (complaints) simultaneously means: she judges you "non-compliant," then handles your "non-compliance" complaint. The referee and the judge are the same person.
委员会交叉是制度性现实：RHPA 要求7个法定委员会，但 Council 只有~12人，所以一人多委员会普遍存在。CTCMPAO 的问题不在于交叉本身，而在于三个独特因素：Committee overlap is systemic: RHPA requires 7 statutory committees with only ~12 Council members, so multi-committee service is universal. CTCMPAO's issue is three unique factors:
1. 其他 College 的考试机构独立于 CollegeOther colleges have independent exam bodies

总结：委员会交叉是全行业现实。CARB 的 governance 模式各省相似。但 CTCMPAO 独特之处在于：同一批人设计 QA 系统、出考试题、处理投诉、做 Council 投票、在学校教书 — 而且这批人的核心10+年不换。其他 College 有制衡和轮换，CTCMPAO 没有。Summary: Committee overlap is industry-wide. CARB's governance model is similar across provinces. CTCMPAO's uniqueness: the same people design QA, write exams, handle complaints, vote on Council, and teach — and this core group hasn't changed in 10+ years. Other colleges have checks and rotation. CTCMPAO does not.
