REMEMBER TO VOTE (from home or mobile)

This article on the Global News provides an opportunity to vote on this
issue – the online poll is non-scientific, but worth getting our collective
input!

ew-guidelines-are-against-it/ (scroll to the middle page of the page, and
vote ‘No, it'll help men measure their risk’ in keeping with PCC’s position)

 

Thanks for everything you are doing to speak out!
Anne

Did you know that the survival rate for prostate cancer can be over 90% when
detected early? Get checked with a PSA test and know your number.

Saviez-vous que si le cancer de la prostate est dépisté dès ses premiers
stades, les chances de survie peuvent dépasser 90 %?
