I'm on a mission to support individuals facing cancer

Nova Scotia has the highest cancer rates in Canada. Currently, one in two people are diagnosed in their lifetime, and one in three 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 family, friends, neighbours.

Would I like to target prevention? You bet! But that's not within my reach today.

Still, the 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 with 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!
