About 2 in 5 Canadians will develop cancer in their 810,045 lifetime, and about 1 in 4 Canadians will die of cancer. Canadians were alive at In 2015, it is estimated that 196,900 Canadians will the beginning of 2009 2 in 5 develop cancer, and 78,000 will die of cancer. More with a cancer diagnosed Canadians will than half of new cancer cases (51%) will be lung, in the previous develop cancer in breast, colorectal and prostate cancer. Lung cancer is 10 years their lifetime the leading cause of cancer death, causing more cancer deaths among Canadians than the other three major cancer types combined. Despite this large impact, there has been a substantial drop in the lung cancer death rate (especially for men) over the past 25 years, which has driven a decline in the overall cancer death rate. 196,900 Slightly more men than women get cancer in Canada, % Canadians will be diagnosed and the vast majority (89%) of Canadians who develop 63 with cancer in 2015 cancer are over the age of 50.

Some cancers have very high 1 in 4 five-year relative survival ratios, including thyroid Canadians will die cancer (98%). Other cancers have consistently low from cancer five-year relative survival ratios, such as pancreatic cancer (8%).

We hope that our readers cancer cases is primarily due to the aging Canadian think critically about what these numbers mean and population and, to a lesser extent, population growth how they can be used to improve survival, develop and changes in the risk of developing cancer.
