As the first and only Canadian patient advocacy organization dedicated to bladder cancer issues, Bladder Cancer Canada is proud to provide patients, their caregivers and families with the support and resources they need to help navigate a bladder cancer diagnosis.
Through patient support, awareness and research, our vision is to create a world where bladder cancer is just a memory.
Blood in the urine is the most common symptom of bladder cancer. Don’t ignore this warning sign. It could save your life.
I didn’t know anything at that point. My doctors told me to reach out to BCC, and that’s where I did all of my research and read all of the resources – the organization really helped me understand my diagnosis.

Over the last 11 years, I have often benefited personally from the webinars and patient information meetings of Bladder Cancer Canada. I find it so important to continue to support this wonderful organization by participating in Canada Walks for Bladder Cancer each year and continuing to raise funds to support research aimed at finding a cure for bladder cancer and to ensure that patient and caregiver information continues to be available.

I have been amazed by how well BCC has been able to spread the word that visible blood in the urine requires a visit to the doctor. The public awareness campaign with signs at bus stops, for example, has been hugely successful. I have seen multiple patients who tell me that these ads triggered their own visit to a doctor that led to the bladder cancer diagnosis.
