The event's important mission is:
"To increase awareness of how common colorectal cancer is today. To increase participation in screening programs to prevent colorectal cancer. To raise funds for charities that have a record in saving lives through promoting easy access to screening."
It's a highly visible event, starting at Queen’s Park Circle, in front of the majestic Legislative Building, and proceeding along College Street, Spadina Avenue, Bloor Street and Bay Street, ultimately finishing back where it started, where goodies are served.
This event is organized with the cooperation of the City of Toronto, local City Councillors, and the Sergeant of Arms of the Legislative Assembly of Ontario.
