Abstract
No special topic on page 9.
This publication has recently undergone an evaluation, and we extend our thanks to all our readers who participated in the evaluation process. In 2013, we will launch a revised version of the publication based on the feedback we received through the evaluation and on current testing of a possible future format. To make this process possible, the 2012 edition has been shortened so that we may dedicate our resources to improving future editions. The 2012 publication therefore does not include the sections on five-year relative survival, prevalence, probability of developing or dying from cancer, cancer in children and youth, or a special topic. Similarly, we will not produce a printed (hard copy) edition for 2012. The publication will continue to be available at no charge through the Canadian Cancer Society's website at: www.cancer.ca/statistics. -- page 5.
