My son and I are 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 my son and I are 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.

My son will be joining me on the 25 km!
I’m so proud to share that my son, Theo, will be riding alongside me in this year’s Ride for Cancer. This cause means a lot to both of us — cancer has touched our family and community in so many ways, and Theo wanted to do his part to help.
We’ve been training together every weekend, and watching him push himself has been inspiring. Last weekend we made it up to 23 km — he’s almost ready for the full 25!
Together, we’re riding to raise funds for cancer care right here in Nova Scotia. 💙 We’re already 80% of the way to our fundraising goal, and every contribution helps bring us closer to the finish line — both on the trail and in the fight against cancer.
