Cancer affects everyone in some way or another and two new cancer hubs in Northern Manitoba will improve cancer treatment and care for patients. Health Minister Erin Selby announced yesterday the new hubs to open later this fall, one in The Pas and one in Thompson. The new hubs will be made up of care providers working together to help people across the north get the care they need, when they need it closer to home. It will cost up to $770,000 annually for the front line staff to support cancer patients in the region the minister noted.
