Abstract: This report presents findings from an environmental scan that was conducted as part of a larger Survivorship Project by the Rebalance Focus Action Group of the Canadian Partnership Against Cancer. The Survivorship Project aims to move a national cancer survivorship agenda in Canada forward in the coming years. The scan consisted of both a literature search as well as individual interviews with 47 key informants with a threefold purpose to:; (1) Explore the nature of and extent to which cancer survivorship conceptualization, research and practice is undertaken in Canada; (2) Identify some of the key Canadian contributors to cancer survivorship undertakings; (3) Identify resources from the literature that may prove useful in future cancer survivorship efforts in Canada
