Sure, Quebec could do like other provinces and have screening more accessible. However I hope it doesn't involve seeing a doctor first because it might be difficult to do so if the person doesn't have a family doctor.

At least a screening is not something that should be pressing so the person has time to call 811 every day for weeks before being able to see a doctor.

I think cancer screening should generally made more accessible. My father had three types of cancer, my only sibling had prostate cancer in the same year of his life as my father... but sadly I need to pay out of pocket for PSA testing in BC.
