May is Skin Cancer Awareness Month.
This month, I’m thinking of the many Canadians and families whose lives have been touched by melanoma and other forms of skin cancer. It’s a cause that is deeply personal to me, my wife Kelly is a melanoma survivor, and I’ve seen firsthand the strength, resilience and uncertainty that come with a diagnosis.

I was honoured to speak at the Save Your Skin Foundation breakfast and join advocates, survivors, healthcare professionals, and researchers working to improve awareness, prevention, and access to care. Early detection saves lives. Please take the time to protect your skin, know the signs, and encourage your loved ones to get checked.

To everyone currently facing a diagnosis: you are not alone. This month, and every month, we stand with you.
