Thank you to everyone who has signed and shared Petition e-5186 so far! We’ve now reached 325 signatures, but we need at least 500 to push pancreatic cancer onto the national agenda. Every signature brings us closer to real action in Parliament.

Pancreatic cancer is on track to become the second-leading cause of cancer death in Canada, yet it remains one of the most underfunded and overlooked cancers in research. Unlike breast, prostate, and lung cancer—where survival rates have improved due to sustained investment—pancreatic cancer has been left behind.

Meanwhile, other countries are stepping up:

✅ The U.S. increased federal research funding after passing the Recalcitrant Cancer Research Act

✅ The U.K. is investing in national strategies to tackle “cancers of unmet need”

✅ Australia launched a Pancreatic Cancer Roadmap, dedicating government funding to research and early detection

Canada must not fall further behind. It’s time for a national pancreatic cancer strategy, increased research funding, and better access to clinical trials—so that people diagnosed today have real hope for survival.

📢 Here’s how you can help:

✅ Sign and share Petition e-5186 today: https://www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en/Petition/Details?Petition=e-5186

✅ Ask your MP to support pancreatic cancer research—tag them on social media!

✅ Encourage 3 friends or family members to sign—it takes less than a minute.

We only need 175 more signatures to hit our next goal. Let’s make sure Parliament listens!

Thank you for standing with us. Let’s keep pushing forward. 💜
