Your mention of prostate cancer prompts me to respond. I am a volunteer member of a Canadian research group collecting and compiling data on various types of it and it's possible genetic connections.

Also the study is compiling information on treatment processes regarding equality of delivery to the Aboriginal community Vs the general population. The discrepancy was enormous.

A frequent speaker who offers guidance and information is in the following link. Dr Caron is not only a highly qualified surgeon but also an authority who works tirelessly speaking at cancer forums. Not only in Canada but also travels to the US for engagements.

In one case study a first Nations community with a total population of just over 200 (Men, Women and Children) 13 of the women were currently inflicted with Breast cancer at the time the information was initially gathered. 30%+

Other info being compiled has so far has revealed that 75% of Metis men suffer from Prostate Cancer in their lifetime. Those figures are excessively out the normal statistics.
The Metis in Canada are part white French and Native Indian originating in the Red River district near Winnipeg Manitoba. This leads us to suggest there is further genetic investigation required to isolate a possible gene malfunction.
If it is the case then the results should benefit screening for the rest of the general population regardless of ethnic origin. Research indicates it is easier to target such anomalies in smaller groups as their cultural habits, environment and eating will be relatively constant.


A cause I find is easy to dedicate time to.
