Our mandate

Improving cancer outcomes for all people in Canada

Canada’s cancer strategy envisions a future where fewer people develop cancer, more survive it, those living with the disease have a better quality of life and everyone has equitable access to high-quality cancer care. The Canadian Partnership Against Cancer exists to make that vision real. As steward of the Canadian Strategy for Cancer Control, we collaborate with and convene provincial, territorial and national partners across Canada’s health and cancer community to strengthen cancer care and improve cancer outcomes for all people in Canada.

Our focus on achieving health equity

Advancing health equity in cancer care

An equitable cancer system is one where all people have access to high-quality cancer care. Creating that equity in Canada is a key goal of the Canadian Strategy for Cancer Control and a strategic anchor of the Partnership’s business plan. Our work with partners to improve health equity in cancer care builds on current initiatives to advance diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) internally within the Partnership as well as our commitment to supporting reconciliation with First Nations, Inuit and Métis.
