We want to extend the warmest congratulations to Breast Cancer Action Quebec on your 25th anniversary!  BCAQ remains one of the few voices in Canada and Quebec focused on the primary prevention of breast cancer.  It has miraculously survived and grown over these decades in spite of the corporate and governmental attacks on women and public health groups.  There are few other feminist and environmental justice organizations with your mandate and your staying power.  We applaud your efforts to extend the struggle for breast cancer prevention to the work environment where too many women face the hazards of exposure to mammary carcinogens, hormone disrupters and shift work.  We thank you for all the support you have given to so many including ourselves. All the best for the future.   We stand with you in solidarity and affection.
