Canadian Partnership Against Cancer

The Canadian Partnership Against Cancer is a federally funded, independent non-profit organization mandated to accelerate cancer control across Canada. Established in 2007, the organization stewards the Canadian Strategy for Cancer Control, a 10-year framework designed to reduce the burden of cancer through coordinated national action. Its work focuses on improving clinical outcomes, enhancing the patient experience, and ensuring equitable access to care, with a specific emphasis on First Nations, Inuit, and Métis populations. The Partnership acts as a national convener, bringing together provincial and territorial cancer programs, health care professionals, and patient groups to share data and best practices. By driving systemic changes in prevention, screening, and palliative care, the organization aims to decrease the impact of cancer on all Canadians.
