Bicycle accidents are responsible responsible for approximately 25 percent of all deaths at the trauma divisions of Canadian Canadian children's hospitals.

"Many parents don't realize realize that bicycles are not toys, they are a child's first vehicle," said Dr. Carole Guzman, President-Elect of the CMA. "Through the CIPP program, we want to instill the message that wearing a bicycle helmet should be mandatory ... it can reduce a child's risk of serious head injury by 85 percent." "We hope that this campaign campaign will stimulate greater awareness about the issue of bicycle-helmet safety," said Colin Mallet, President of Sandoz Canada. "If every young cyclist, wore a helmet, more than 2,000 injuries and at least 50 deaths per year would be prevented. Ultimately, this is the message of the Canadian Canadian Injury Prevention Program." Program."
