Help us transform local cancer care, right here at home
Nova Scotia has the highest cancer rates in Canada. Currently, 1 in 2 are diagnosed in their lifetime and 1 in 3 patients will not survive. That’s why our team is saddling up to help fund life-saving care for all Nova Scotians.
The list of loved ones affected by cancer keeps growing, and so must our commitment to conquering it. This is our time to lead the charge and continue our journey to transform local cancer care — for those we’ve lost, those currently facing cancer, and the 1 in 2 who will be diagnosed.
To help combat these alarming stats, our BMO Ride for Cancer community will equip our QEII experts with the diagnostic tools they need to deliver some of Canada’s most leading-edge cancer care available — ensuring patients have the best possible chance of conquering cancer.
Funds raised by our 2025 BMO Ride for Cancer community will unlock more precise, targeted therapies that have fewer side effects and allow for earlier detection of cancer recurrence for patients being treated at the QEII.
With every dollar you donate, you’re bringing us closer to a future where precision oncology WILL save and change the lives of Nova Scotians.
To learn more about precision oncology and the impact your generous donation will have, visit https://YourRideforCancer.ca/Impact.
Thank you to our supporters

It has been a very long time since I have seen Michael but I will always remember his kindness and smirky smile. We won many badminton tournaments together and at the end of every game he would hit me with his badminton racquet and say good job, even if we lost. My sympathy to you all for your deep loss. Pedal hard because Michael would want you to be the first ones over the finish line : )
