Funding Information:
To date, needs for funding have been met in three ways: by obtaining major support from the Canadian Partnership Against Cancer, an independent organization funded by the federal government to accelerate action on cancer control in Canada; by reducing costs, which has been achieved by leveraging and harmonizing existing regional cohort initiatives; and by forming strategic partnerships within some provinces to help with data collection and to obtain significant additional funding. Nonetheless, ensuring sustainable long-term funding continues to be a challenge that must be addressed at the national level. Funding for individual research projects that wish to use the data gathered will be the responsibility of the requesting research group.
