Not sure why you said that. CA is the hardest, no doubt. But CMA, you just pass some "entrance" exam and do two years of group study, how difficult is that? At least with CGA, you have to pass far more exams than then the CMA "entrance" exam entails to get your letters. And CGA has the same rights as CA in all provinces except ON. Meaning for legislative purposes CGA=CA.

So I really don't see the incentive for CGA to merge and be tagged as such after the merge.

The hardest part accounting is doing consolidation. CGA has multiple currency and jurisdiction consolidation question in the exam while CMA just do that as part of a group study. CGA exams are not UFE tough but they are still exams which are harder than doing group study/presentation.
