Lung Cancer Awareness Month ends on November 30. Our work doesn’t. Look back on the month with us and look forward to a brighter future for the 32,000 Canadians who will be diagnosed this year.
Did you know that sharing your overall COPD experience can help unlock new treatments, even if you’ve never taken the treatment being evaluated? Taking part in this confidential survey is a meaningful way to take part in Canada’s drug review process.
Life’s uncertainties have a way of reminding us how precious—and unpredictable—our time is. Even if you’re young and healthy, having a will in place is a crucial step toward securing peace of mind for you and your loved ones. From safeguarding your assets to making sure your wishes are honoured, a will can play a vital role at any stage in life.
Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that’s invisible, odorless, and tasteless—yet it poses a significant health risk if left unchecked. It forms from the decay of uranium in soil, rock, and water, and can accumulate to dangerous levels inside buildings, including homes, schools, and workplaces. The more airtight a building, the higher the potential radon concentration, which is why modern, energy-efficient homes are often at greater risk for radon buildup.
Creating a will is not just about legalities—it’s about leaving a legacy that reflects your values, relationships, and impact on the world. November’s “Make a Will Month” encourages us all to take this important step, but what does it really mean to leave a legacy, and how can a will support that?
Having a will is more than just a legal requirement—it’s an opportunity to provide security, clarity, and peace of mind for you and your loved ones. Despite common misconceptions, every adult can benefit from having a will in place, regardless of financial status or family structure. A will not only allows you to direct how your assets should be managed but also relieves your loved ones of unnecessary stress.
