M-604 Sarcoma

That, in the opinion of the House, the government should continue to take strong actions to fight cancer and raise awareness of sarcoma cancer by: (a) working with stakeholders, such as the Canadian Partnership Against Cancer and the provinces and territories, to improve cancer care for all Canadians; (b) supporting world-class research through the Canadian Institutes for Health Research; (c) recognizing that sarcoma cancer tragically took the life of Canadian hero Terry Fox; (d) recognizing that 1 200 Canadians are expected to be diagnosed with this disease every year; and (e) proclaiming the third week of June in each and every year Sarcoma Cancer Awareness Week, as advocated for by the Sarcoma Cancer Foundation of Canada.
