One of the ways in which Bladder Cancer Canada supports patients and caregivers, is to empower through education that facilitates the best possible outcome and quality of life for all. Because we understand that in-person meetings might not come to your area, and because there are some topics that are sensitive and best learned in privacy, we began offering free live webinars in 2018. All webinars will be recorded and posted here for those who are unable to join live and anyone who wishes to watch them again.
