ceptions of the Society : empathy, compassion
and hope.
The daffodil, a fresh new symbol
The first version of the daffodil was abstract
and plain, a concept that won public approval.
Society volunteers, however, expressed their
preference for an image that captures the
flower’s true likeness. The logo we settled on
marries the two concepts: the daffodil retains the abstract elements of
the first draft but is vividly framed in a pure
blue square.
Conclusion
The Canadian Cancer Society’s new logo
successfully combines these divergent perspectives : the shapes range from free flowing
to a more anchored appearance; while the
bright yellow contrasts sharply with the pure
blue. The whole elegantly reflects the hope
and compassion, strength and rigour that
define the Society.

Message from
the President of the Division
and the Executive Director
T
he Canadian Cancer Society has a new face! The caduceus, a symbol of the unrelenting fight against cancer for
60 years, and an emblem of the medical world, has served the Society well over many years of darkness. Today,
the daffodil has taken its place as the Society’s official logo. A symbol of hope and courage, the daffodil faithfully
reflects the realities of an organization that is engaged in the fight against cancer on several fronts, including cancer research, education in cancer prevention and support to people living with cancer.
The daffodil—a long-time presence within the organization—has come to be recognized by our people as an
emblem of the Canadian Cancer Society. Who has not heard of Daffodil Days, which usher in spring every year?
In Quebec alone, annual daffodil sales bring in over $1 million. And then there are the many events that take
place across Quebec where our representative flower, a sight familiar to the public, trumpets both strength and
compassion.
The new millennium was an ideal opportunity for the Canadian Cancer Society to adopt a new image and a
new slogan, unveiled here for the first time: “Let’s make cancer history.”
In closing, a word from your president, who is completing her term with a heavy heart, leaving behind a role
that placed her at the heart of the action for two very short years. “Our new slogan captures the essence of what
every president hopes to accomplish during a mandate. We can be proud of our many successes in areas such
as research, programs and fundraising. But much remains to be done. The fight will not be over until cancer is
history. The key to our success is our dedicated team of volunteers, our capable staff and our generous donors.”
Thank you!

A home away from home
The layout of the Lodge deserves special mention. In stark contrast to
the impersonal feel of most institutional settings, the architect created a
friendly and discreet environment that gives the Lodge all the warmth and
charm of a home away from home.
In addition to 30 double rooms, the Lodge has several beautifully decorated lounges, located on each floor. For the gregarious, the Lodge also
offers more spacious common rooms. In the summer, residents can enjoy
the three terraces as well as the garden.
An address worth noting
Since September 1989, the offices of the Quebec Division and the
Montreal region have been located at 5151 Assomption Boulevard, in
Montreal. The French language Cancer Information Service joined them in
1996.
A location to be proud of
By acquiring its own location, the Canadian Cancer Society was also
seeking to gain greater visibility and to make the Lodge an important centre for all cancer-related matters.
Since its inauguration in April 1990, some 5000 people have been residents at the Lodge and thousands of others have attended meetings
there, as well as symposia, conferences, training workshops, get togethers
and media events.
Over the last decade, the Lodge has become a place of choice for discussing cancer-related topics. Last year alone the Lodge hosted a wide
range of activities.
One Step at a Time
On December 9, a few days before the law prohibiting smoking in the
workplace came into effect, the Canadian Cancer Society invited the media
to attend the launching of its program One Step at a Time, intended for
smokers who want to kick the habit on their own.
The success of this announcement, which took place at the Lodge, was
instantaneous and unprecedented in the history of the Society.
In a room filled with curious journalists eager to find out about the
method prescribed by the Society—inspired by the Stages of Change
model—a drug addiction expert explained the five steps smokers need to
take to free themselves from their addiction: precontemplation, contemplation, preparation, action and maintenance.
As soon as the One Step at a Time program was announced on radio
and television, the phones started ringing off the hook at the Cancer
Information Service, which had lent its support to the initiative. In the days
that followed, the Information Service answered 5300 calls, 1107 of which
poured in in the first 24 hours. Normally, the Service responds to an average of 50 calls per day requesting information on cancer.
Thanks to the herculean efforts of the Society’s support staff, a crisis was
averted and the Information Service was able to rise to the occasion.

Another challenge, another victory
As the province with the most smokers, Quebec has the highest mortality rate due to lung cancer. Clearly, the Society must work hard to convince
Quebecers to kick this deadly habit.
Louise Labrie, an outspoken anti-smoking activist and President of the
Public Interest Committee, heard about the “Quit and Win” contest and
decided to organize this initiative in collaboration with Acti-Menu. She
asked the Society to play a leading role. The idea behind the contest was
compelling: encourage smokers, with the support of a partner, to quit
smoking for six weeks in order to become eligible for the grand draw.
On January 20, in a jam-packed room in the Society Lodge, well-known
smokers were invited to take up the Challenge: Pierre Légaré was encouraged by his son; Gaston L’Heureux was coached by Dr. Richard Lessard;
and Bernard Fortin supported his brother, Dr. Marquis Fortin. It didn’t take
long for the news to hit the radio waves and television screens. The promotional material used throughout the province featured the Cancer
Information Service number 1-888-939-3333. As a result, the Service’s
specialists, assisted by Society staff, responded to 6264 requests for infor-
The Lodge
celebrates its
10th anniversary
Thanks to the generosity of
our donors, 5000 people—
shaken by the news of a cancer diagnosis and the prospect
of leaving loved ones to
undergo radiation therapy in
Montreal—have found the
comfort of a second home at
the Canadian Cancer
Society Lodge.
At an affordable price, the
Lodge offers them a comfortable room, three meals a day,
transportation to a radiology
centre as well as the reassuring presence of a caring team
of volunteers. Residents at the
Lodge are also given an
opportunity to forge meaningful friendships and to take part
in various cultural and recreational activities.
mation or material during the 6-week campaign.
The outcome was nothing short of a success: 20,400 smokers (the
number had originally been estimated at 20,000), backed by as many
partners, kicked the habit for at least 6 weeks, and were able to take
part in a contest in which everyone came out a winner, either by receiving one of the many prizes totaling $40,000, or by enjoying the health
benefits of living smoke-free for six weeks.
Morale + Quality of Life = Health
Do morale and quality of life have an impact on the health of those
affected by cancer? That would seem a perfectly obvious equation in
theory, but what is the reality?
This question was explored by seven speakers who were invited to
present their ideas and experience at a seminar held on April 26 to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Lodge. A morning press conference
preceding the seminar enabled the experts to share the highlights of
their afternoon presentations with journalists.
An audience of 70 very attentive healthcare volunteers and professionals attended the seminar. The overriding theme of the seminar was
that while cancer is a frightening disease, it is not necessarily an incurable one. Increased rates of recovery are largely attributable to the positive dynamic in which patients, families and caregivers join forces to
attain a common goal: a return to a healthy life. There can be no doubt
that morale and quality of life play a determining role in this collective
effort toward recovery—a goal which is no longer an unattainable dream.
Louise Labrie (second from left),
initiated the « Quit & Win » contest
which tourned out to be a great
success.
There’s more…
Over the years, in response to the needs expressed by people living
with cancer, the Society produced a
calendar of recurring activities, from
September to June inclusively. In order
to accommodate as many people as
possible, activities are scheduled in
the morning, afternoon and evening.
Here is a typical month of activities
at the Society Lodge:
1st Monday of the month
3rd Monday of the month
Every Tuesday
Last Tuesday of the month
2nd Wednesday of the month
3rd Wednesday of the month
“Look Good…Feel Better” workshop
(afternoon)
“Look Good…Feel Better” workshop
(evening)
Reiki sessions (3 sessions)
Informal get-together
(afternoon)
Conference on a cancer-related topic
(evening)
Group meeting for people with cancer
(evening)
Group meeting for loved ones
(evening)
Activities are free. Given their popularity and limited space, it is best to
register in advance. Attendance varies from 20 to 80 people.
Mission accomplished
The Lodge has fulfilled the expectations of volunteers who oversaw its
construction and who dreamed of a large facility that would provide
accommodation and emotional and physical renewal, as well as references and exchanges on cancer-related matters.
The purpose of « Look
good, feel better » program
is to give hope to women
by helping them regain
confidence in themselves
and in life.
According to the present
speakers, morale and quality of life have a determining influence on health.

Auditors’ report
To the Members of the Board of
Directors of the Canadian Cancer Society,
Quebec Division
We have audited the balance sheet of
the Canadian Cancer Society - Quebec
Division as at September 30, 2000 and the
statements of revenue and expenses,
changes in net assets and cash flows for
the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Society’s
management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
Except as explained in the following
paragraph, we conducted our audit in
accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards
require that we plan and perform an audit
to obtain reasonable assurance whether the
financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining,
on a test basis, evidence supporting the
amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as
well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
In common with many charitable organizations, the Society derives revenue from
donations, the completeness of which is
not susceptible of satisfactory audit verification. Accordingly, our verification of this revenue was limited to the amounts recorded
in the records of the Society and we were
not able to determine whether any adjustments might be necessary to donation revenue, excess of revenue over expenses,
assets and unrestricted net assets.
In our opinion, except for the effect of
adjustments, if any, which we might have
determined to be necessary had we been
able to satisfy ourselves concerning the
completeness of the donation revenue
referred to in the preceding paragraph,
these financial statements present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position
of the Society as at September 30, 2000
and the results of its operations and its
cash flows for the year then ended in
accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles.

Notes to the financial statements year ended September 30, 2000
1. Description of the Society The Canadian Cancer Society (the “Society”) is
a charity incorporated under the Canada Business Corporations Act as a not-forprofit organization. The Society is a national community-based organization of
volunteers dedicated to eradicating cancer and improving the quality of life of
people living with cancer. The Society carries out its mission through research,
public education and services to cancer patients and their families, and uses its
influence in matters of public interest.
2. Accounting policies The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles and include the
following significant accounting policies:
Revenue recognition The Society follows the deferral method of accounting for
contributions. Restricted contributions are recognized as revenue in the year in
which the related expenses are incurred. Unrestricted contributions are recognized as revenue when received or receivable if the amount to be received can
be reasonably estimated and collection is reasonably assured.
Expenses Expenses are recorded in the books according to the applicable sector of activity. Certain expenses which cover more than one sector of activity are
allocated proportionately, in accordance with the Society’s financial management
manual.
Prepaid expenses and deferred expenses Prepaid expenses and deferred
expenses mainly include pamphlets and instructional materials and are recorded at cost.
Capital assets Capital assets are recorded at cost. Contributed capital assets are
recorded at fair value at the date of contribution. Capital assets are amortized on
a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, as follows:
Building
15 years *
Furniture and equipment
4 years *

6. Pension plan
The Society has a defined benefit contributory pension plan covering substantially all of its employees. The plan bases benefits on length of service and final
average earnings. The pension plan is administered by the Canadian Cancer
Society (National).
As the plan is not segregated by division, the pension benefits and assets are
disclosed in the Society’s consolidated financial statements. The Division made
employer contributions to the plan in the amount of $61,719 (1999 - $53,553).
Based on the latest actuarial valuation performed as at January 1, 2000, there
is no actuarial liability with respect to the plan.
