Vision Statement
We will foster the development of swine veterinarians and strengthen our profession through education, networking and communication.
Who We Are
The Western Canadian Association of Swine Veterinarians’ (WCASV) was established in 1974 to provide networking opportunities amongst food supply veterinarians engaged in the western Canadian swine industry. The WCASV’s specific objectives are to provide continuing education and scientific updates to the membership who have a special interest in swine practice, research, and the pork industry. The WCASV also provides financial support to the swine production medicine curriculum at WCVM and provides awards to undergraduate and graduate veterinary students who show excellence in swine medicine.
The Association has rotating presidency and a designated secretary treasurer, scientific program chair, and office support. The current membership is 55 veterinarians and Registered Veterinary Technicians involved in swine and food animal production medicine from across western Canada.
