The Canadian Cancer Registry (CCR) is a population-based registry that includes data collected and reported to Statistics Canada (StatCan) by each provincial/territorial cancer registry (PTCR). 

The person-based CCR collects information about each new primary cancer diagnosed among Canadian residents since 1992. The objective is to produce standardized and comparable incidence data that can be used to assist and support health planners and decision-makers to identify risk factors; plan, monitor and evaluate cancer screening, treatment and control programs; and conduct research.
