New report provides valuable information on breast cancer control across Canada

Breast Cancer Control in Canada: A System Performance Special Focus Report is part of the System Performance Initiative, which aims to make available meaningful and useful information on the performance of the cancer control system. The need for this work was identified in 2007 by the cancer control community and the Canadian Partnership Against Cancer has been facilitating its implementation together with provincial cancer agencies and programs, and national partners including Statistics Canada, the Canadian Cancer Registry and the Canadian Institute for Health Information (CIHI), among others.
