A Promise of Support is a Pledge to Act. The Canadian Cancer Society commends all those MLAs who signed the promise to build a better provincial cancer system, including screening programs and support for research for all types of cancer. With this pledge and recent investment in a comprehensive breast health strategy, Manitoba has taken the first steps toward creating a nationally recognized cancer plan, a plan recommended by the Canadian Cancer Society that focuses on enhanced screening, an improved cancer experience for patients and a reduction in the number of deaths caused by cancer.

CANCER SCREENING SAVES LIVES You can personally reduce the risk of dying from cancer by participating in provincial screening programs for colorectal cancer, breast cancer or cervical cancer. Please encourage your family and friends to take part too.
