Millions of hockey fans across Canada are cheering today as Team Canada skated to a big win over Czechia!

From the roar of the crowd to the edge-of-your-seat moments, hockey reminds us just how powerful our lungs are - every cheer, chant, and celebration starts with a deep breath.

Strong lungs fuel the athletes on the ice and the fans in the stands. Today’s win is a great reminder of why protecting lung health matters - so everyone can keep cheering, playing, and breathing easy for years to come.

Go Canada!

Your vote can help protect young lungs!

LungNSPEI is seeking $5,000 through the MacGillivray Injury and Insurance Law Journeys Grant to deliver Youth Va**ng Awareness Days.

Kids are being lured into ni****ne addiction before they’re taught how va**ng harms their health. This project brings university students into classrooms for honest, peer-to-peer conversations about va**ng, choices, and long-term impact.

Vote today to help prevent addiction before it starts:
