Canada’s provinces have everything they need to cut cancer down to size. Including a starting date! |
|
Right now, Canada has enough knowledge to cut the rate of cancer deaths by half over the next generation. To save approximately one million Canadians from getting cancer, a half a million from dying from it, and to improve the quality of life of everyone touched by it. This is what we mean by controlling cancer. For the first time ever, people across Canada are coming together to bring our provincial action plans to control cancer to life. Over the past few years, Canada has made historic strides in advancing cancer control. If every province is to make the same vital progress then its time to start focusing on cutting cancer down to size. Wednesday May 14, 2008 is when we start doing it. This campaign will unite Canadians across the country as we take the Campaign to Control Cancer into the provincial legislatures with a call to action –
More Control. Less Cancer. |

Canada has everything it needs to control cancer.Including you. May 14th 2008 is the first ever Cancer Day of Action in the Provincial Legislatures of British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Quebec, Ontario and New Brunswick. May 14th is the first time that members of Canada’s cancer community will come together as a team with targeted messages for elected officials. The team is critical. It's everything. The same is true in almost any personal battle with cancer. No one fights their cancer alone. They are surrounded by doctors, nurses, family members and friends. Every good fight needs a good team. The fight to make cancer a provincial priority is no exception. |
