cancer screening programs are available in most
provinces, with the exception of Quebec.(6) Organized
cervical cancer screening programs are also not available
in the three territories (Yukon, Northwest Territories
and Nunavut).(6) Recommendations for screening varies
by jurisdiction and includes commencement from the
ages 21 to 25, with administration every two-to-three
years, until the age of 61 to 70.
