The Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation-Ontario Region is calling on the provincial government to enable women at average risk in their 40s to access the Ontario Breast Screening Program, if recommended by a health care provider.
Now is the chance for you to speak out. Ontario women 40-49 cannot participate in high quality breast cancer screening through the Ontario Breast Screening Program. These services are available in other provinces including BC, Alberta, Nova Scotia, and PEI. Visit http://www.cbcfscreeningsaves.ca/ and send a letter to the Minister of Health and Long-Term Care, Deb Matthews and the opposition critics. |
