Annual Breakfast – The Women in Insurance Cancer Crusade

The Women in Insurance Cancer Crusade (WICC) hosted its annual breakfast at the Arcadian Court in downtown Toronto on Nov. 4. More than 400 industry professionals gathered to hear keynote speaker Erin Anderssen talk on the topic of ‘Cancer and the Canadian Experience — Stories to Educate and Inspire.’ Anderssen, a senior writer for the Globe and Mail, published a series in 2006 entitled ‘Cancer: A Day in the Life.’ For five months, starting on June 15, 2006, Anderssen tracked the experiences of dozens of Canadian as they experienced — or died from — cancer on that day.
