Message from the Chair of the Board The Canadian Cancer Society (CCS) worked continuously throughout 2010-2011 to make sure life wins. Volunteers, donors and employees all contributed in their own way to the growth of the Quebec Division’s revenues – which reached $30 million – a milestone in the organization’s development. More than one in three people will develop some form of cancer in his or her lifetime. We face considerable challenges and we need to make choices that will allow us to stand out in an increasingly competitive environment. To achieve this, the National Board of Directors has adopted a five-year strategic plan (2010-2015) that leverages our history and reputation, as well as the strength of our programs, policies and investments in research to advance the fight against cancer. This major undertaking was carried out alongside the Quebec Division which developed its own strategic plan aligned with the national plan. Our plan will enable us to continue to reduce the Message from the Executive Director In 2010-2011, the Canadian Cancer Society (CCS) created a collage reflecting the colours of life. Volunteers, employees and donors contributed to this collective work, which reached $30 million – an all-time high. This record-breaking amount allows us to devote even more money to pursuing our mission. With 14 regional offices and 16 service centres ensuring our presence throughout Quebec, we are your best ally in the fight against all cancers. “ Volunteers, employees and donors contributed to this collective work, which reached $30 million – an all-time high.” Despite the tough economic climate, we have worked consistently to uphold our commitment and manage each dollar with thoroughness and transparency. Whether you are a volunteer, employee, donor or partner, your support is what gives our collage for life its full meaning. Thank you for standing with us. Suzanne Dubois Research ma t io n n or Prev e nt io or pp Inf t Ad Su 2 vo c ac y Tribute to Pierre-Alain Rodrigue, Chair I would like to extend my deepest thanks to Pierre-Alain Rodrigue, who this year is completing his mandate as Chair of the Board of the Quebec Division. Involved in the CCS for the past 12 years, Pierre-Alain chose to give his all to combat cancer. He was a long-time active member of the Performance Assurance Committee, becoming the committee’s Chair in 2005. incidence of cancer, decrease the mortality rate and enhance the quality for life of people living with cancer, both during and following a cancer experience. In 2010-2011, we were your greatest ally in the fight against all cancers as we pursued our efforts in our five fields of action: research, information, support, prevention and advocacy. Indeed, research remains our priority in 2010-2011, with $7.5 million invested in Quebec to support 58 projects, $6.6 million of which was contributed by the Quebec Division. As the largest national charitable funder of cancer research in the country, we firmly believe that research is our best weapon for improving treatments and preventing the disease. Since smoking is responsible for approximately 30% of all cancers and 85% of lung cancers, in 2010-2011 the Quebec Division orchestrated the largest citizen mobilization campaign in the history of the CCS nationwide. The letter campaign undertaken as part of the Fight Back section of most Relay For Life events gave the CCS an Under his stewardship, the organization remained active and vigilant, while maintaining its high standards of governance. Appointed Chair of the Board in 2009, Pierre-Alain succeeded in mobilizing his troops in a time of economic crisis, determined to always do more so as to familiarize the public with the CCS and the services the organization offers to those living with cancer. His mandate spanned two strategic plans that allowed him to demonstrate his intense passion for the cause. His determination prompted him to become even more deeply involved in the fight against cancer, particularly Canada-wide. Indeed, our Chair is very committed at the national level. For the past three years he has sat on the CCS National Board of Directors, as well as the National Council whose representatives include the Chair of each division. He is also the Chair of the Finance, Audit and Risk Management Committee. When he became Chair of the Board, Pierre-Alain’s goal was to improve our fundraising performance. Two years later, we are pleased to declare “mission accomplished.” 3 opportunity to be seen and heard. A total of 22,300 Quebecers signed letters asking the Minister of Health to implement a market freeze on tobacco products, take local measures to combat the sale of contraband tobacco and introduce a ban on smoking in vehicles carrying children under the age of 16. As this exciting mandate draws to a close, I wish to thank our dedicated staff and our 27,000 enthusiastic volunteers. My sincere thanks go out to all our donors and partners who have enabled us to continue to do more. I would also like to express my gratitude to the members of the Board of Directors and to the Executive Director, Suzanne Dubois, for their integrity and perseverance in our fight for life. Pierre-Alain Rodrigue Chair of the Board With his dynamic personality, he infused the CCS with an amazing energy and a strong desire to gain ground so that, one day, no one will fear cancer. Thank you, Pierre-Alain, for your loyalty to the cause and your steadfast commitment. We will continue on the path that you helped us map out. Suzanne Dubois Executive Director Canadian Cancer Society 5 “Donors need to know they are making a difference.” Dr. Gerardo Ferbeyre, CCS-funded researcher Dr. Anita Koushik Research For life. research Dr. Gerardo Ferbeyre CCS-funded researcher projects $7.5 million The backbone in the fight against cancer Cancer research requires a great deal of time, money and energy. It’s a vast field that covers all types of cancer, a term that encompasses more than 200 different diseases. To defeat cancer, we must understand how it works, how it behaves and how to provide the most appropriate treatment. Research is at the root of this understanding, which is why the Canadian Cancer Society (CCS) has made research its number one priority in Quebec. Thanks to funding from the CCS, each year, hundreds of men and women working in a dozen or so research centres in the province are gaining ground on the disease. In 2010-2011, the CCS invested $7.5 million in research in Quebec, of which $6.6 million was contributed by the Quebec Division. In all, 58 of the most promising research projects received funding over the course of the past year – some for the first time, some through renewal grants – thus enabling researchers to make further progress in their work involving all cancer types. Even with the dedication of these researchers and the sums invested, research is still desperately underfunded. In fact, a lack of resources meant that the CCS was able to fund a mere 17% of eligible research projects. Nevertheless, thanks to our generous donors, the CCS remains the largest national charitable funder of research in Quebec and Canada. The organization’s contributions accounted for close to 55% of all non-government funding and 10.7% of overall investments.1 To save more lives Dr. Gerardo Ferbeyre, a researcher at the Université de Montréal, has discovered a natural defence mechanism that the body uses to fight cancer. This mechanism comes into play when benign tumours start forming. In pursuing his research, Dr. Ferbeyre hopes to shed light on why some cells bypass this defence system and become cancerous. “Receiving a Canadian Cancer Society grant is very special indeed and donors need to know that their contribution makes a difference. With a grant from a charitable organization like the CCS, there is a closer relationship between the source of the funding and what is done with it. People who donate to the CCS are doing more for research. They aren’t content with helping to finance government subsidies through the taxes they pay; they become directly involved.” Journey into the heart of research At the CCS volunteers’ conference in November 2010, close to 250 participants were invited on a journey into the world of research and scientific investigation. During the two-day event, volunteers met with numerous leading researchers from Quebec and around the world. Through a program that addressed research funding, grant mechanisms and the latest breakthroughs, participants gained a better understanding of the issues at stake in the fight against cancer. 2011 CCS-funded researcher 1 Source: Canadian Cancer Research Alliance.

Telling people, the fear, death… it’s such an overwhelming experience. Bringing people together proves there is power in numbers. It’s very beneficial.” Jean-Marc Péladeau e rg of cha Free ble Availau To yo port Sup For Creative expression through art You are not alone. u. re for yo e h e ’r e W life. Art therapist and facilitator in Sherbrooke Being present Any bad news can be tough to absorb. Imagine when it’s a cancer diagnosis. Whether it’s you or a loved one who has developed the illness, you will want to look for someone to turn to, to talk it out, to speak with someone who has gone through a similar experience and also obtain helpful information. To meet these needs, in 2003 the Canadian Cancer Society (CCS) created Cancer J’écoute. Cancer J’écoute is a psychosocial support service made up of counsellors, professionals and volunteers trained to help, listen and provide practical tools for dealing with cancer. The Cancer J’écoute team is made up of eight employees, 196 volunteers and 50 professionals ready to help people living with cancer. Customized individual support In 2010-2011, Cancer J’écoute handled 469 requests for immediate assistance or practical information. A total of 837 matches were made this year. Of these, 636 were new matches. These activities resulted in more than 12,000 support calls. Telephone matching professionals – psychologists, sexologists and others – are recognized experts in their respective fields. They were involved in 130 matches for a total of 239 support calls throughout the year. Five predominant themes emerged during these professional interventions: sharing a parent’s diagnosis with a child, anxiety, sexuality, self-image and relationships with health professionals. New services The CCS’s psychosocial support team is constantly striving to augment the range of services it offers to better meet clients’ growing needs. To this end, a number of new services were launched in 2010: ■■ e-mail 82% of clients are women matching ■■ telephone support line for people a waiting a diagnosis or experiencing severe anxiety ■■ LUNCH conference calls addressing various cancer-related issues development of new training materials and practical information 6 8% are living with cancer ■■ the Regional support services In cooperation with the 14 regional offices, Cancer J’écoute also offers people affected by cancer access to group support. In Quebec, 37 expressive art groups and 17 visualization groups were launched in 27 cities, which are led by professionals with assistance from volunteers. On average, 94% of group participants say that the workshops help them cope with their cancer experience. The monthly support groups, for their part, welcomed more than 700 participants across Quebec. 94% of participants say that the workshops help them cope with their cancer experience Cutting-edge support In an effort to offer the most up-to-date training in the field of support, in 2010 the Cancer J’écoute team gave 43 days of training in support and group facilitation to employees, volunteers and health professionals in six regions. Speakers delivered 17 lectures to more than 450 people (professionals and the general public) in eight regions. Cancer J’écoute organized more than 24 conferences on topics ranging from sexuality to humour as well as 17 training sessions. Daily support provided by volunteers and professionals from Quebec 8 “ Volunteering for the Trottibus Walking School Bus is extremely rewarding. It’s more like an exchange than a donation. Yes, you give your time, but you get so much in return. There is such a comforting and enriching aspect to the Trottibus Walking School Bus that you can immediately appreciate when you see the children’s gratitude, enthusiasm and joy.” Canadian Cancer Society Canadian Cancer Society % Inscris-toi au sm at.ca Consuelo Vásquez, CCS volunteer for the Trottibus Walking School Bus Prevention For life. 9 s of cancer can be avoided Prevention in action We now know that one in two cases of cancer could be avoided through the adoption of healthy lifestyles and public health policies. For this reason, the Canadian Cancer Society (CCS) constantly strives to put forward actions and programs aimed at promoting cancer prevention, notably through anti-smoking initiatives and by encouraging screening, advocating for reduced exposure to UV rays and promoting healthy lifestyles. Hop on the Trottibus Walking School Bus In the spring and fall of 2010, Little walkers and Walkers could be seen walking to certain schools. These pupils, and the volunteers who accompany them to their schools, were testing the Trottibus Walking School Bus initiative. Developed by the CCS with funding provided by Québec en forme, the Trottibus Walking School Bus promotes physical activity among children and reintroduces participants to the joys of walking. Project partners include the Carrefour action municipale et famille, the Fédération des éducateurs et éducatrices physiques enseignants du Québec, the Réseau du sport étudiant du Québec and Kino-Québec. Nine schools took part in the project, with a total of 216 Little walkers. Spread the word with Thingamaboob Mother’s Day is a big deal at the CCS. On May 2010, 28,835 Thingamaboobs were sold by Jean Coutu pharmacies (PJC) – that’s 10,000 more than the previous year. In October, a virtual version of this educational tool, which illustrates the effectiveness of mammograms, was also sent to 38,000 women aged of 50 to 69. Beneath the sun In 2010, the CCS’s Sun Squads (Escouades Ô Soleil) reached 38,000 young kids in day camps and at public events thanks to a program set up by the 14 regional offices. The goal of these squads is to reduce children’s exposure to UV rays, thereby reducing their risk of developing skin cancer. In my lunchbox As part of Relay For Life, the CCS launched the “Lunch for Life” activity to encourage participants to make healthy lunchbox choices by following the organization’s nutrition guidelines. Quit smoking As part of the Plan québécois d’abandon du tabagisme, the Ligne j’Arrête – a joint initiative between the CCS and the Quebec Council on Tobacco & Health – is a helpline offering smokers personalized support, information and resources to those looking to butt out or those who have kicked the habit and want to avoid a relapse. Smoking cessation agents can be contacted by phone, e-mail or chat. Funded by the Ministère de la Santé et des Services sociaux, the helpline fielded 18,736 requests in 2010. The helpline also teamed up with various health partners to follow up with the 2,918 support requests made by patients who had been discharged from hospital. Introduced in 2010, the Short Messages Against Tobacco (SMAT) service was created by the CCS for young smokers aged 18 to 24 who wish to quit smoking. The messages were adapted especially for young adults. Close to 200 young people in the Quebec City region took part in the pilot project by signing up at smat.ca. Challenges… growing in popularity From March 1 to April 11, 2010, the 5/30 Health and Wellness Challenge invited Quebecers as young as four years old to eat better and move more. As a Challenge partner, the CCS contributed 75,000 shopping lists with recipes which were distributed in kits given to all those willing to take on the Challenge. To recruit participants, more than 50 kiosks manned by CCS volunteers were set up in IGA stores. In all, 42 municipalities were actively involved in the Challenge, and 14,094 families and 3,609 teams registered for the event, for a total of 124,200 people. In its 11th year, the Quit To Win! Challenge, an ACTI-MENU initiative, was a smashing success. In 2010, a total of 15,804 people registered during the annual campaign, which encourages smokers to kick the habit for a minimum of six weeks. Participants were given the opportunity to request a follow-up call from an agent from the Ligne j’Arrête; 2,356 people took advantage of this support. Canadian Cancer Society “I am not at all surprised that so many Quebecers took the time to sign the letter. People want to see action!” Magalie Taillon, who signed the letter All in all, 22,300 letters were sent to the government Advocacy For life. 11 demanding a review of the Tobacco Act Taking a stand The 2010-2011 year was a busy one for the Canadian Cancer Society (CCS) in terms of advocacy activities. Whether it involves conducting public relations initiatives, lobbying elected officials or mobilizing citizens, advocacy works towards the implementation of legislation and government programs that promote a healthy and active lifestyle. Not only does the CCS benefit from an ever-expanding network of volunteers, but it also deploys ongoing efforts to mobilize elected officials in the fight against cancer, to position the organization as a leader in numerous key areas, and to increase its visibility in the Quebec media. 22,300 letters sent to the government A massive letter-signing campaign to advance the anti-smoking issue was conducted as part of the 2010 Relay For Life Fight Back section. The goal of the campaign was to encourage Yves Bolduc, Minister of Health and Social Services, to give the Tobacco Act more clout and thus better protect our youth. The letter contained three key requests: a market freeze on tobacco products, local measures to combat the sale of contraband tobacco, and a ban on smoking in vehicles carrying children under the age of 16. The CCS’s 14 regional offices as well as a total of 57 Relay For Life groups agreed to participate in the campaign in the field. The CCS met with 48 MNAs in their respective regions to present them with boxes of letters bearing the organization’s logo. The MNAs in turn delivered the 22,300 letters to the Quebec government. The letter campaign enjoyed strong media visibility, with more than 60 articles about the campaign appearing in various weekly publications and online. Keeping the momentum going The successful letter campaign allowed the CCS to pursue its tobacco control efforts. On November 2, during a press conference attended by numerous media representatives, the CCS called on the Charest government to take action. The goal of this event was to reveal the results of what turned out to be the largest citizen mobilization campaign conducted by the CCS nationwide and to make the tobacco issue a priority for the Ministère de la Santé et des Services sociaux. A number of public health figures were on hand to support the CCS’s initiative and to demand a substantive review of the Tobacco Act. This was a shining opportunity for the CSS to position itself as an important media stakeholder. Indoor tanning comes under fire Skin cancer is the most common type of cancer. It is also the most preventable, which is why the CCS took part throughout the year in Operation Say It Loud!, an innovative youth-driven project to promote assertiveness, commitment and involvement. The goal of Operation Say It Loud! is to educate French- and English-speaking students 14 to 18 years of age, from four Montreal school boards, on health issues over which they have some control. This initiative encourages them to pursue advocacy activities and effect change. The CCS was asked to develop a workshop on the dangers of indoor tanning that was attended by the students from 23 schools. Starting the conversation Mobilizing sympathizers is good; keeping them interested and committed to the cancer cause is better. This is why so many efforts have been made to maintain relationships with the CCS’s advocacy supporters. A Facebook group was launched for people interested in receiving calls to action and prepared to unite Quebecers around cancerrelated issues and to press our elected officials to take action. E-blasts were also sent to sympathizers to the cause to maintain their interest in the fight against cancer.

People can access these services when they want, depending on the urgency of their need.” Lorraine Vermette, Executive Advisor in service continuum development CSSS Lucille-Teasdale et de la Pointe-de-l’Île, and Hôpital Maisonneuve-Rosemont Nutrition a mation Infor For life. Information specialists who listen Cancer is a word we all know, but do we really understand that this disease can take many forms? Information sources abound, but their credibility varies greatly. By offering the public an extensive array of resources to ensure that everyone has access to reliable and credible information, the Canadian Cancer Society (CCS) has established itself as a go-to reference for all cancer-related matters. Available to everyone The Cancer Information Service (CIS) comprises four information centres spread throughout Canada. The Montreal Centre is the CCS’s only French-language centre, handling requests from Francophones across the country. In 2010-2011, the Montreal Centre fielded 16,268 information requests, including 2,114 via email. The Centre also offers follow-up calls. People seeking information about cancer, in one way or another, fall into a variety of categories. For the most part, requests come from people with cancer, their loved ones (family and friends) and health professionals. With the development of new technologies, the CIS now has more than one platform for delivering its services, thanks in great part to the growing popularity of social media. Furthermore, the cancer.ca site provides Web users with a wealth of information. From February 1, 2010 to January 31, 2011, there were 344,503 visits to the site (all sections combined), an increase of 11.1% over the previous year. In all, the site received 1,372,972 page hits. A well-stocked library In addition to offering rapid access to people qualified to answer any cancerrelated question, the Cancer Information Service distributes some 50 free publications in several languages. The CIS provides users with clear, accurate information that’s been validated by cancer specialists on numerous topics, such as nutrition, a specific cancer, prevention and smoking cessation. Two new brochures were published last year, bolstering the CCS’s already wellstocked library: Living with Advanced Cancer and Preventing Cancer. Over the years, the CIS has also developed the Canadian Cancer Encyclopedia™, a vast directory offering comprehensive data on cancer. Risk reduction, screening, diagnosis, treatment and supportive care for many forms of cancer are just a few of the topics covered in the Canadian Cancer Encyclopedia™. The Encyclopedia includes more than 60 chapters, 41 of which are accessible online. The content is regularly reviewed and updated by oncology experts. Promoting our services In 2010, the CCS produced a two-part promotional video: one section featured the Cancer Information Service, the other, Cancer J’écoute. The video uses testimonials as well as interviews with volunteers, service users and health professionals to present the CCS’s information and psychosocial support services. Patients explain how the CCS has helped and supported them throughout their cancer experience. The video is available at cancer.ca.

I’m a dedicated worker! I’m proud to have been able to send thousands of parcels to people living with cancer for all these years.” Lucien Hébert Lucien Hébert, CCS volunteer for 30 years CCS volunteer for 30 years Material and financial assistance For life. Focusing one’s energy where it counts When someone receives a cancer diagnosis, they need to focus all their energy on combating the disease. Unfortunately, cancer impacts our lives in every way: physically, financially, psychologically and materially. In 2010-2011, the Canadian Cancer Society (CCS) maintained and expanded its range of services by providing essential material and financial resources to people in need. At an office near you The CCS’s Quebec Division enjoys a pre sence throughout the province, thanks to its 14 regional offices. To ensure its services are even more accessible, the CCS has also set up service centres where anyone can meet with volunteers who serve as the organization’s ambassadors. In 2010, three new centres (Chibougamau, Lac-Mégantic and Notre-Dame-des-Prairies) joined our existing establishments, for a total of 16 centres. More than 100 volunteers working in 16 remote municipalities provide CCS s ervices: loans of wigs and scarves, material assistance, and free literature. Customized tools To effectively satisfy the needs of people with cancer and their loved ones, the CCS is constantly developing promotional and informative tools. A customizable information pamphlet was produced to present each region’s activities. Throughout the year, a CCS reusable bag containing reading material and handy items was given to people staying at the Jacques-Cantin Lodge and to anyone with cancer who went to a CCS service centre. Material assistance Living with cancer brings with it a wide range of new experiences. Some find themselves facing a different reality, such as having to wear a wig or breast prosthesis. To address this situation, the CCS, in partnership with Hanes Canada, distributes thousands of temporary breast prostheses free of charge to mastectomy patients awaiting a permanent prosthesis. The CCS has also partnered with Pantene Pro-V to develop the “Beautiful Lengths” program, which loans natural hair wigs to women requesting them. Furthermore, the CCS has invested close to $100,000 in new wigs and related products (turbans, hairbrushes, shampoos and conditioners, hairnets, wig stands), which are available at its regional offices and service centres. The CCS also ships health care items (bandages, compresses, syringes, etc.) to anyone in need. In 2010, a total of 6,100 parcels were mailed throughout Quebec to people living with the disease. And such items are in great demand: in 2010-2011, the CCS processed 976 new requests, a 7% increase over 2009-2010, for a total cost of $326,300. Financial assistance: more people helped Over and above material assistance, the CCS also offers financial resources. People who meet certain criteria may receive financial assistance for transportation to and from treatment centres (radiation, chemotherapy or surgery), or an allocation for the purchase of needed equipment. In 2010, the CCS’s Financial Assistance Program processed 4,423 applications, or roughly 26% more than last year, for a total amount of $1,093,179. An oasis For the past 20 years, the Jacques-Cantin Lodge has been part of the CCS landscape. This year, 648 people with cancer and 202 companions stayed at this oasis of peace. Inaugurated in 1990, the Jacques-Cantin Lodge is available to self-sufficient Quebecers from outside the city who must travel to Montreal to receive their cancer treatment at one of the city’s hospitals. Located in welcoming surroundings, the Lodge offers numerous services, tasty meals, an attentive staff and a transportation service, all in a calm, friendly setting and at modest rates. 16 Canadian Cancer Society Canadian Cancer Society $30 The Relay For Life 2010 at a glance ----------------------$12.9 million raised 77 events 47,396 participants 10,443 survivors 7,449 volunteers 224,932 luminaries ----------------------- 17 million The Daffodil Ball raised in 2010-2011 Pénélope McQuade surrounded by the three Co-Chairs of the 2010 Daffodil Ball: Daffodil Days volunteers Development Guy Hachey, Bruce R. Richmond and Marc P. Tellier – along with Suzanne Dubois and Pierre-Alain Rodrigue of the CCS Activities that make a difference To offer more services, fund more research projects and help more people living with cancer, the Canadian Cancer Society (CCS) needs to expand and step up its fundraising activities. As a national charitable organization, the CCS relies mainly on the generosity of donors for its funding. Year after year, our donors demonstrate their commitment to the fight against cancer, with the result that in 2010-2011, the Quebec Division generated revenues of $30 million. The Relay For Life Celebrating people living with cancer, paying tribute to those who lost their battle, fighting the leading cause of death in Quebec and Canada – these are the goals of the Relay For Life. Since 2001, the number of Relay For Life events held each year has grown steadily, with echoes felt in every region of Quebec. In 2010, the Relay For Life raised $12.9 million, an increase of $1.5 million over the previous year, which also saw a 4.6% rise in the number of participants. As a fundraising event, the Relay For Life has the greatest impact in the fight against all forms of cancer. In 2010, the activity was responsible for 42.9% of the Quebec Division’s revenues. Each year, the Relay organizers gather at the Relay Summit to highlight their achievements and share best practices in an effort make participants’ experience of this signature event even more rewarding. Daffodil Days Created in 1961, Daffodil Days have become synonymous with spring. From March 25 to 28, 2010, these pretty blooms helped us raise $2.3 million. More than 12,000 volunteers working at nearly 2,600 points of sale went all out to encourage the public to brighten their day with a bit of yellow and thus contribute to the fight against cancer in a beautiful fashion. The Daffodil Ball Aladdin, the “One Thousand and One Nights” and 600 guests were on hand for the 17th Daffodil Ball, which took place on April 22. Attended by Canada’s business elite, this annual event is a distinctive, glamorous and elegant evening that enjoys a reputation in international philanthropic circles for its excellent organization. Indeed, the Daffodil Ball is Canada’s most prestigious gala to benefit the fight against cancer. In recent years, the Ball won the Special Events Magazine Gala Award in the category of best fundraising event five times. The 2010 edition of the Daffodil Ball raised $2.2 million. Donations to suit every style of giving enable it to do more to combat all forms of the disease. People wishing to join the CCS’s fight for life, either by giving their time or money, can choose from a variety of options to suit them: an In Memoriam donation, planned giving, a monthly donation, the door-to-door canvassing, an In Your Honour donation, a direct mail donation, etc. In 2010, the CCS collected $7.8 million thanks to the generosity of donors, establishing the organization as the leader in the fight against cancer. Rallying events Many other activities are held to raise additional funds for the fight against cancer. The opportunities for giving are as numerous as they are lively and entertaining with events like the Paws for Hope walk-a-thon involving man’s best friend, gourmet gatherings featuring fabulous food, the Volleyball Challenge and Cops for Cancer. In 2010, these initiatives raised $2.1 million.

Whether lending a hand at events, raising funds or providing services to people with cancer, these men and women give of themselves each day to improve the quality of life of those living with the disease. The CCS is an ideal choice for anyone wishing to join in the fight against cancer. In fact, this year, close to 2,000 people joined the ranks of the organization to become volunteers. The CCS also provided its volunteers with training geared to the specific activity or services they wished to engage in. Empowered volunteers In September, a new volunteer recognition program was created to develop, promote and maintain a culture of appreciation and draw attention to the contributions of the volunteers behind CCS’s actions. The Pinnacle Prize, which pays tribute to the most dedicated volunteers, was created for the occasion. Fifteen prizes were awarded in the Mission and Fundraising categories during the 2010 volunteers’ conference. Throughout the last year, numerous CCS volunteers stood out. Not surprisingly, on April 21 the CCS received the Hommage bénévolat-Québec Award in the Organization category for the Relay For Life. This distinction, awarded by the Government of Quebec, highlights and rewards the CCS for placing an emphasis on recruiting and coaching its volunteers, and for promoting, advancing and raising the profile of volunteerism. Six volunteers from Quebec also received a Citation of Merit under the CCS’s National Recognition Program. 14 regional offices Pillars of inspiration A CCS volunteer for the past five years, Frédéric Champagne took up the cancer cause at the age of 13, when he had just lost his father to the disease. He has served as the spokesperson for the Relay For Life in Trois-Rivières on two occasions. Frédéric received the Claude-Masson Award in the “Young Volunteer” category at the Quebec government’s Hommage bénévolat-Québec awards. “Promoting the CCS is something I care about deeply. With a cause like this, it’s impossible to remain indifferent.” Cancer survivor Édith Lavergne, a CCS volunteer since 1997, received the 2010 Medal of Courage. This award, given by the CCS’s National Office, spotlights the rare and exceptional courage displayed by an individual in his or her personal battle with cancer. Édith, who passed away in March 2011, was very involved in the CCS. The organization wishes to honour her courage and determination. vergne Centre : Édith La CCS volunteer Frédéric Champagne, volunteer Front and centre The fight against cancer involves countless players, and getting noticed in today’s media can be a challenge. This is why it is so important for the Canadian Cancer Society (CCS) to distinguish itself and demonstrate what makes it the leading organization in this battle. Over the past year, numerous communication initiatives directed the CCS to centre stage with the objective to increase public awareness of our services, maximize the CCS’s visibility, ensure a strong presence in targeted media and create a positive image as a leading organization recognized by the public for its impact on all forms of cancer. The people behind the scenes A promotional video was produced to better acquaint the public with the CCS, its actions and its services. Featuring testimonials from volunteers, employees and researchers dedicated to the cause, this tool is also aimed at rallying volunteers around the organization’s mission. The video met with much enthusiasm at the 2010 volunteers’ conference in November and is available on Facebook/sccquebec. Social media play their part In 2009-2010, the CCS made its social media debut; this year the organization stepped things up. Through a targeted strategy, we were able to start a dialogue with the public on various platforms, including Facebook, Twitter and cancer.ca. As of January 31, 2011, the Quebec Division boasted 5,103 fans on its Facebook page and 841 Twitter followers. The CCS wants to make the most of this heightened presence to engage in a conversation with its sympathizers and strengthen their sense of belonging. As such, the CCS is establishing itself as a fresh and dynamic organization in tune with the population. Getting out and about In 2010, the CCS put together a squad to promote its services and represent it at trade shows and exhibitions. Throughout the year, this team of communication professionals was given the tasks of creating a positive impression on the public, recruiting volunteers and raising the CCS profile at these events. Increased media presence In terms of media coverage, 2010 turned out to be a great year for the CCS’s Quebec Division. The organization was mentioned 1,623 times in print media, broadcast media and on the Web. The CCS clearly stood out as the go-to organization for information about cancer, with 240 mentions on television, 540 on the Internet, 543 in newspapers and magazines, and 300 on the radio and in social media. Highly active, the CCS needs to increase the positive impact of its actions and familiarize the public with its achievements. The goal is maximum visibility with minimum investment! The organization’s different campaigns have reached a broad audience thanks to an ongoing presence in all forms of media. The CCS also produces its own publications, which it distributes to the general public and to specific groups. In 2010, it published Interaction, a French-language magazine for CCS volunteers and employees; Difference, a recognition magazine for donors; and Priority Research a popular science magazine written for the organization’s volunteers, employees and donors that is also designed to strengthen ties with Quebec’s scientific community. 20 Canadian Cancer Society Canadian Cancer Society Greater impact in the fight against all forms of cancer Statement of Revenue and Expenses For the year ended January 31, 2011 (in thousands of dollars) Operation, Stability and Initiative Fund The Canadian Cancer Society (CCS) benefited from a significant increase in revenues for the 2010-2011 fiscal year. These remarkable results allowed the organization to invest even more in its mission. Having weathered the economic crisis relatively well, the CCS is now looking to the future with renewed optimism and the same goal it has always pursued: the eradication of cancer and the enhancement of the quality of life of people living with cancer. Over the past few months, the Performance Assurance Committee, which is guided by principles of rigour and transparency, focused on the sound management of the CCS’s assets. To offer more support and services to people living with cancer and their loved ones, each dollar must be invested wisely. We are pleased to announce that, thanks to the excellent work of our teams of employees and volunteers, we were able to raise a recordbreaking amount. It therefore gives me great pleasure to present the highlights of the 2010-2011 year. The $30 million threshold has been crossed In 2010-2011, the Quebec Division collected $30 million, an increase of $2.4 million, or 8.5%, over the previous fiscal year. The last five years have seen steady revenue growth thanks to the development of different projects, particularly the Relay For Life. In 2010, the Relay For Life was held in 77 municipalities and raised $12.9 million, a 13% improvement. To further support its mission, the CCS also created new partnerships with a number of organizations – almost twice as many as last year. organization’s 14 regional offices and 16 service centres. Proceeds from the Daffodil Ball and contributions from major donors were also up over last year, bringing in $2.2 million. Planned donations remained stable, earning the organization $2.5 million. A better understanding of cancer gives people fighting the disease and their loved ones a reason to hope. With $3 million invested in information services, the CCS enjoys a presence on numerous communication platforms: telephone (1 888 939-3333), Web (cancer.ca), new publications and even social networks. The organization’s credibility and respectability make it a preferred source of information in a field where there are many players. More money for our mission With increased revenues, the Canadian Cancer Society was able to invest even more in its mission. In 2010-2011, the organization directed $3.5 million – or 21% more than last year – to five fields of action: research, advocacy, prevention, information and support. Without research, it would be impossible to beat cancer, which is why the Quebec Division of the CCS invested $6.6 million ($1 million more than last year) to what is essentially the organization’s top priority. This amount will allow Quebec researchers to continue their fight for life. The CCS also invested more in prevention, since it’s known that roughly 50% of cancer cases could be prevented through healthy lifestyle choices and public health policies. Consequently, an additional $1.4 million was committed to a number of projects, such as the Trottibus Walking School Bus. The CCS spent close to $700,000 more than last year to provide support and services to people with cancer and their loved ones. New services were developed, making it possible to reach and satisfy the needs of people living in large urban centres as well as in more remote regions, thanks to the The CCS also wants to make things happen. For this reason, it has invested $558,000 in advocacy activities, thus taking a public stance and ensuring its voice is heard in areas such as tobacco control. None of these initiatives would have been possible without the commitment of our thousands of volunteers and donors, and the 200 employees who are dedicated to the fight against cancer. On behalf of myself and the members of the Performance Assurance Committee, I would like to thank you for your involvement. Even the smallest thing you do can make a big difference.

In that time, the couple has weathered many storms, including cancer. Together, they experienced the shock of receiving the terrible news, they stood up to the challenge and they beat the disease. “When I was diagnosed with cancer, I thought it was the end of the world and that I was going to die,” says Lisette. It was the same for Gaétan, who set about putting his affairs in order when he received his diagnosis. Lisette and Gaétan Chair, Performance Assurance Committee The couple decided to roll up their sleeves and help and encourage each other. “We took the time to talk to and listen to one another. To keep our relationship strong, communication was the key.” As cancer survivors, Lisette and Gaétan wanted to help others living with the disease. “Following our cancer experience, Gaétan and I saw a news story about a woman who committed suicide after learning she had cancer,” recalls Lisette. “We realized that if she had been able to talk to someone, she might have been able to cope with the disease. So we contacted the Canadian Cancer Society and offered to become volunteers. The organization provided us with training and since then, Cancer J’écoute has been putting us in touch with people facing a cancer diagnosis.” By lending an attentive ear to the people with whom they are matched, Lisette and Gaétan offer comfort and hope to those living with cancer. When asked what they learned from their cancer experience, the response is immediate: “First of all, you have to take the time to grieve. Then you have to talk and help the other person open up and verbalize their fears. Throughout our journey, we discovered strengths we never knew we had.” Embracing a noble cause Simon Paquin works in the media. Delivering news, conveying messages, that’s his game. For the past two years, he’s put his communication savvy to work in the fight against cancer. Dr. Richard Lessard Volunteer member Thanks !

France Desharnais 23 Thanks ! “My maternal grandparents both died of cancer,” he explains, “so it was completely natural for me to donate my know-how and my time to a noble cause like that of the Canadian Cancer Society.” Simon has used his professional experience to promote various Canadian Cancer Society (CCS) activities. Paws for Hope, Daffodil Days and the Relay For Life have all enjoyed tremendous visibility thanks to his commitment. He is also actively involved as the 2011 chair of the steering committee and head of communications for the Relay For Life in Terrebonne. Participating in the fight against cancer has brought Simon many nice surprises. “For me, volunteering is very rewarding, and being involved in an organization like the CCS that works to improve the quality of life of those who are ill is very stimulating. In the time that I’ve been volunteering, I’ve had the opportunity to socialize with and to meet some extraordinary individuals. I would like to thank the CCS for exposing me to such wonderful emotions and for allowing me to use my experience to help the public.” Canadian Cancer Society 25 Give. For life. “We are your greatest ally in the fight against all cancers.” Pierre-Alain Rodrigue, President Thank you for joining in the fight for life Giving. Offering your time to a cause, donating money, being there for those who need it – these are all actions that can have significant repercussions on the lives of so many people. Oftentimes, we don’t realize how big of an impact this generous act has, particularly if you consider the sheer number of people who are affected, directly or indirectly, by cancer. Cancer touches everyone If the Canadian Cancer Society (CCS) is now the organization with the greatest impact on the fight against all cancers that’s available to all Quebecers, it’s thanks to the generosity of its donors. A total of 296,510 people made a donation to the CCS in 2010-2011; that’s an impressive number of individuals making a tangible commitment to the fight for life. More than $30 million was collected through various fundraising activities and a flexible donation program that’s accessible to all. The money raised enables us to make a real difference in the lives of the hundreds of thousands of people living with the disease. Thank you Volunteers, employees, donors, all of them rallied around a single, common goal: to fight against cancer and enhance the quality of life of people living with the disease. Without the generosity of its donors, the CCS would be unable to offer all of its services and to constantly improve those services to better meet the public’s growing needs. The CCS has decided to publish, in the pages that follow, the lists of donors who have helped to further the organization’s mission. They are divided into four broad categories: leader and major donors, Daffodil Ball donors, Relay For Life donors, and those who have contributed by way of planned giving. On behalf of families, friends and colleagues who have been touched by cancer, please accept our deepest gratitude for your generosity. $30 million Total raised in 2010/2011 26 Canadian Cancer Society Canadian Cancer Society Major partners Leader and Major Donors Samson Bélair/ Deloitte & Touche sanofi-aventis Canada Inc.

Many of them were already contributing to the Canadian Cancer Society’s Relay For Life, either as a partner or as a participant. There are many aspects about the Relay For Life that stand out for us: it takes place throughout Quebec, it is well structured, it benefits the cause in a significant way and it enjoys great visibility. We believe it is important to become involved in the fight against cancer. Being diagnosed with cancer is a dramatic event, but the Relay is a friendly, unifying occasion that reminds us that we are fighting for life.” Nicolas Ayotte, President and Chief Executive Officer, Via Capitale ident and Nicolas Ayot te, Pres Chief Executive Officer, Via Capitale $20,000 OR MORE Tim Hortons Mont-Laurier $10,000– $19,999 Boutique Oui je le voeux Cummins Eastern Canada LP Gouvernement du Québec, Ministères, Députés Groupe B.M.R.
