SUMMARY:Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month
DESCRIPTION:Colorectal Cancer Awareness MonthMarch is Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month. This year\, Colorectal Cancer Canada (“CCC”) is highlighting the importance of screening with our various activities and the launch of our “Make Your #2 Your #1 Priority” campaign. \nOur objective is to make all Canadians aware that colorectal cancer can affect everyone\, that it exists and 69 Canadians each day are diagnosed. We want people to talk about it far & wide! Colorectal cancer is Preventable\, Treatable\, and Beatable\, and\, if caught in its early stages\, it is 90% curable. Colorectal cancer is not just an old person’s disease\, all Canadians should be more aware of the signs and symptoms as well as what to do if they arise. Regular screening is key! \nDress in Blue\n\nOn March 7th\, 2025\, we are encouraging everyone to dress in blue to show support of those touched by colorectal cancer\, while raising awareness about this Preventable\, Treatable\, and Beatable disease that will be diagnosed in approximately 25\,000 Canadians this year. Join the movement by organizing a workplace Dress in Blue event and/or sharing your personal ‘blue’ fashion style on your social media platforms by using the hashtag: #dressinblue and by tagging @coloncanada. \n\n\n\nThis year\, in honour of Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month we are going bigger than ever! CCC has arranged for landmarks* across Canada to light up in blue as part of their support for colorectal cancer awareness. From coast to coast\, these landmarks will be illuminated to get the conversation going and increase awareness of the disease! If you are near one of the illuminated sights a photo of you\, family\, friends\, and/or pets would be an extra bonus! Don’t forget to post the pictures on your socials and mention us by using #dressinblue and tagging @coloncanada. \nList of landmarks: \nThe Toronto CN Tower\, La Grande Roue Montréal\, Le Château Frontenac\, Canada Place Sails of Light Vancouver\, The Millennium Sundial\, Legislative Assembly of British Columbia\, Saanich Municipal Hall BC\, The Ottawa Sign in ByWard Market\, Kingston City Hall and Market Square\, Montreal Olympic Stadium\, The Calgary Tower\, High Level Bridge\, Edmonton\, and Niagara Falls! \n\nWatch live as the following cites light up on:\nMarch 7th: CN Tower https://www.cntower.ca/en-ca/home.html#earthcams  \nMarch 7th: Niagara Falls  https://www.earthcam.com/world/canada/niagarafalls/thefalls/?cam=niagarafalls2 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLEARN MORE ABOUT ALL OF OUR EVENTS69 \nCanadians diagnosed every day \n4th \nMost commonly diagnosed cancer in Canada in 2024 \n90% \nCurable when\ndiagnosed at early stages \nMake Your #2 Your #1 Priority!
