INCTR Canada was recently created to focus on population-based cancer control and palliative care, particularly in Asia and Brazil. It also has a special interest in pediatric oncology in countries with limited resources. The branch will develop links with cancer centers and cancer control professionals in Canada in order to support INCTR’s mission. Dr. Simon Sutcliffe, formerly the President of the British Columbia Cancer Agency and currently the President of the International Cancer Control Congress Association, was elected President.
