The SunFit Project is a dermatologist-led initiative that aims to increase melanoma awareness, provide information on skin cancer and prevention strategies, and increase sun safety practices in Canada.
Here is a look at the various statistics surrounding melanoma, which is a form of skin cancer, in Canada.
