Celebrating our 26th Year in 2026!

This year is Kayaking for Cancer’s 26th Anniversary of paddling the Rideau Canal in support of the Canadian Cancer Society.

This year we continue the push for our ULTIMATE GOAL – we aim to reach a grand total of $1 MILLION dollars raised for the Canadian Cancer Society over our 26 years of kayaking.

I'd like to make a charitable donation

Thank you to all the donors, sponsors and volunteers who make this event possible. We couldn't do it without your support!
