Campaign chairman this year is Mr. Arnold Roach and some 150 canvasers will be on the job during the month. These people are giving of their free time to battle against cancer and although they know that many types of Cancer can be beaten, they also realize that there is still much work to be done. The money raised this month will be used in research, public education and service to patients programs across Canada.
