I'm on a mission to support those facing cancer
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 I am riding in the 11th annual BMO Ride for Cancer 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 our loved ones 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 Cancer Centre; Atlantic Canada’s largest and most specialized cancer treatment hospital.
With every dollar you donate to my Ride, you’re bringing us closer to a future where precision oncology WILL save and change the lives of Nova Scotians.
Please donate to my Ride today!

BMO RIDE 2025
Hi All
I am very excited to announce this is my third year of entering a team in the BMO ride for Cancer. the Ride takes place on September 27, 2025. The first year it was my daughter, Annette and I who participated. Since then, my grandson William joined and this year we have several more family members and friends joining. I will update more on this in the coming months; I am proud to say team GOODE is growing in numbers.
In a recent email from the BMO RIDE organizers, I was surprised to learn Nova Scotia has the highest cancer rates in all of Canada. Currently, 1 in 2 will be diagnosed in their lifetime and 1 in 3 patients will not survive. To help combat these alarming stats, our BMO Ride for Cancer community will equip our QEII experts with the precision oncology tools they need to deliver some of the country’s most leading-edge cancer care available to help save lives. It is all part of their mission to continue to build a QEII center of excellence in Cancer Care, this will impact every patient who receives care at Atlantic Canadas largest and most specialized cancer treatment hospital.

BMO ride 2024 I had dedicated my ride to my friend John Pickford, who had just passed away from Cancer. This year as I reflect, I have lost one family member and four friends all from Cancer. It shocks me that most were younger than me, Cancer has no boundaries. This year I will dedicate my ride to those who have recently passed as well as those who have recently been diagnosed and are fighting the battle of their lives.
My team has raised over $7000.00 last year and with your help we hope to exceed that this year. I appreciate your contributions in making this happening. We have another year to help with the fight, and I look forward to your support.
