## Resource

Alberta’s government unveils a bold 10-year cancer care plan to slash wait times, boost screenings, and expand access—despite rising cases and mounting pressure on the system. With only 54% of key surgeries done on time, the strategy targets 90% compliance by 2030, introduces rapid diagnostics to cut diagnosis waits to 4-6 weeks, and aims to halve oncology consult delays by 2036—all without new funding, relying instead on existing $1.2B over three years. Critics say it’s too little, too late, blaming years of underinvestment, while the government insists it’s built on input from hundreds of frontline workers and patients.
