Development of the Canadian Cancer Statistics
• In partnership with the Statistics Canada (SC), Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC), and the provincial/territorial cancer registries
• Interpretation of data and text by volunteer committee of experts (in epidemiology, surveillance, subject matter experts)
• CCS coordinates the committee• Our partners allow us to issue the public release
and host the publication on cancer.ca
PEI Statistics at a glance
910 estimated new cases in 2015
380 estimated cancer deaths in 2015
2 in 5 Canadians expected to develop cancer
in their lifetime
1 in 4 Canadians expected to die of cancer
63% five-year relative survival (for people diagnosed in 2006-2008)
Estimated new cases in PEI in 2015
Estimated 380 deaths (190 males, 190 females)

PEI Fast Facts• Most common cancers in men: prostate, lung and
colorectal• PEI has one of the highest incidence rates of
cancer among men -12% higher than average
– Prostate - 3rd highest, 27% higher national average – Lung -3rd highest, 22% higher than national average– Pancreatic highest in the country, 20% higher – Melanoma skin cancers - highest in the country, 50%
higher than national average
PEI Fast Facts• Most common cancers in women: breast,
lung and colorectal• PEI’s mortality rate for women 9% higher
than national average (In 2014 PEI was 12% higher than average)
• PEI has third lowest incidence rates of cancer amongst women in the country 10% lower than national average
• Population of PEI is estimated to grow 14% or about 19,000 residents by 2030
• Islanders aged 65+ will represent slightly more than 1 in 4 (up from 1/8)
• More than doubling new cancer cases expected in aged 65 and over.
• Increase in new cases mainly due to aging and population growth and to a lesser extent, changes in the risk of developing cancer
• Estimated number of new cases on PEI by 2030 = 1,340
Key findings
Survival (2006-2008)
5-yr relative survival rates
High Medium Low
Thyroid (98%) Bladder (74%) Ovary (45%)
Testis (97%) Cervix (74%) Multiple myeloma (43%)
Prostate (96%) Kidney (68%) Stomach (25%)
Melanoma (89%) Colorectal (65%) Brain (25%)
Breast (88%) Larynx (63%) Liver (20%)
Hodgkin lymphoma (85%)
Oral (63%) Lung (17%)
Uterus (85%) Leukemia (59%) Esophagus (14%)
Pancreas (8%)
Which cancers have the highest and lowest 5-yr relative survival?
What Do These Statistics Mean?The burden of cancer will increase primarily due to aging and population increases • PEI does not have to accept this prediction
• Increase focus on life-time cancer prevention
