“While we don’t completely understand why more cancers are occurring in people under 50 years of age, it is likely that risk factors related to cancer – for example, overweight and obesity, diet, alcohol, consumption and smoking – play a role.” www.theguardian.com/society/2026...

Canadians have a right to know the health risks of the products they consume. Alcohol warning labels—including cancer risk and standard drink information—support informed choices. Alcohol should not be exempt from basic consumer health information. www.theglobeandmail.com/opinion/arti...
