Air quality affects every breath we take — and for people living with respiratory conditions, the impact can be significant.

Join us on Wednesday, March 11, from 12:00 PM – 1:00 PM for an upcoming Circle Micro-Session: Indoor and Outdoor Air Quality and Lung Health: Translating Environmental Exposure into Patient Education and Practice, presented by Robin Urquhart.

This free, one-hour session will focus on how to translate air-quality evidence into clear, practical guidance for patients and families. You will explore:
• Key indoor and outdoor pollutants affecting respiratory health
• Canadian communities at higher risk of exposure
• How to interpret air-quality information (e.g., AQHI, wildfire smoke advisories)
• Strategies to reduce exposure at home, work, school, and during poor air-quality events
• Approaches to tailoring advice based on patient context and resources

Designed for busy healthcare professionals, this session offers timely insights you can apply directly in practice!

In the latest interview with HCPLive, Jessica Moffatt, PhD, discussed a new initiative from the Lung Health Foundation designed to support more informed lung cancer screening conversations.

The newly launched online lung cancer risk calculator simplifies a validated PLCOm2012 risk prediction model into a plain-language, 10-question tool that generates a personalized 6-year risk estimate in just 2–3 minutes. It was created to help patients and primary care providers better understand whether someone may be eligible for screening and to guide referral discussions—especially during time-limited appointments.

“We recognize how busy primary care providers are, and this is a tool that can help primary care providers, in a very streamlined way, have that discussion with their patient that lung cancer screening may be right for them. It’s convenient for the public, but it’s also convenient for clinicians.”

By translating complex risk data into an accessible format, this tool helps strengthen informed decision-making and supports more meaningful conversations about screening pathways and next steps.

Canada’s healthcare system is under strain—and more doctors alone won’t fix it. Prevention is key. From va**ng among youth to preventable respiratory illnesses, we need national leadership to stop creating tomorrow’s patients today.

Find out more in the op-ed in The Hill Times by Dr. Dawn Bowdish, Director of the Firestone Institute for Respiratory Health, and Jessica Buckley, President & CEO of the Lung Health Foundation, on why prevention is key for Canadians and our healthcare workforce: https://bit.lunghealth.ca/4kvmTJz

The Lung Health Foundation, alongside the Canadian Respiratory Health Professionals - CRHP and other lung health partners across Canada, acknowledges the landmark 2025 federal to***co settlement holding major to***co companies accountable for the harm caused by their products.

This $32.5-billion agreement represents a critical opportunity to strengthen to***co and va**ng control, expand smoking cessation supports, and invest in lung health prevention efforts nationwide—so fewer Canadians are harmed in the future.

Together, we will continue advocating for these funds to be used where they matter most: protecting lung health and saving lives.

The story of the Lung Health Foundation

For more than a century, we worked tirelessly to be the recognized leader, voice and primary resource in lung health under the Ontario Lung Association name. Meanwhile, lung disease continued to place a profound burden on patients and their families, and placed a large – and growing – economic burden on every provincial healthcare system across Canada.

Given the staggering gaps we had uncovered in the prevention, diagnosis, and care of lung disease, it became clear that it was time to bring the staff and board of the association together to make some big, bold changes to our approach.

In 2020 and beyond, we are charting a new path forward. We are empowering all Canadians to improve their lung health, and re-introducing ourselves to Canadians under a new name,

We are the Lung Health Foundation. And lung health starts now!
