Expert Angle Webinars

Through our peer support program and at regular Prostate Cancer Support Ottawa (PCSO) meetings, we try to help individuals deal with inquiries on the various aspects of prostate cancer diagnosis and treatment. Prostate Cancer Canada (PCC) (now a part of the Canadian Cancer Society) also helps address many of these issues through a series of webinars, covering topics important to individuals with prostate cancer along different points of the cancer care continuum. They also can be helpful to those within their circle of care, as well as to the general public and representatives from the clinical community. The webinars are available on the Canadian Cancer Society website at the following link -
