Abstract The prevalence Cancer in the Canadian Setting has been understudied. However, this research will focus on addressing the reasons for the gap (mortality) between the Aboriginal and Non-Aboriginal Canadians, with the former at a higher risk. Also, the study will analyze the four main types of cancer such as prostate cancer, cervical cancer colorectal cancer, and breast cancer. The investigation aims at providing the different social, economic, and cultural factors that facilitate the increase in the number of deaths among the Aboriginals. Therefore, it is significant toward ensuring that the right measures are taken to reduce the number of deaths in the future as well as improve the well-being of the affected population.  -------------------------EXCERPT FROM THE PAPER--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Statistical Evidence The Canadian Cancer Society reports indicate that 4 out of 10 people in the county develops the disease in their lifetime. For instance, more than 200,000 individuals were diagnosed with cancer in 2016. On average, 23 Canadians are screened with cancer in different health centers within the country in an hour (Canadian Cancer Society, n.d.). The increased number of cases are associated with the fact that a large percentage of the country’s population is aging (above 65 years). According to these results, the prevalence of cancer in the Canadian fraternity is rising at an alarming rate. Towards this end, statistical evidence over the last five years suggests that the cases are increasing at about 4% per year (Canadian Cancer Society, n.d.). Subsequently, a higher mortality rate has been experienced within the same period. Also, the Canadian Medical Association conforms to these results. According to one of the studies the association conducted in 2012, the predictions suggested that cancer cases in the country by 2019 will approach the quarter million mark while the population then was about 100,000 (Demers et al., 2012). Friedman & Hoffman-Goetz (2007), conducted an examination to assess cultural sensitivity among the aboriginal female population in the country. The results of these study indicate that a large percentage (63,000) of women residing from the urban areas are in a higher risk of developing cancer-related complications than the ones in rural areas (39, 687). The main arguments behind this trend were characterized by risk factors such as alcoholism, smoking, and lack of physical activity. Similarly, Sheppard et al. (2011) organized research to determine the survival rate for women with breast cancer in Ontario. The result [Show Less]
