Addressing priority cancer control gaps with and for First Peoples

March 6, 2014 - A new initiative was launched today to improve cancer control with and for First Peoples. While cancer affects everyone, rates of common cancers have increased among First Nations, Inuit and Métis in the past few decades and in some populations are now at or above those in the general Canadian population. The new initiative will help reduce the cancer burden for these communities and improve the experience for patients.
