Canadian Dermatologists Lobby For Teen Tanning Bans

Canada's dermatologists presented concerns that skin cancer, including melanoma, is on the rise among young patients at the Canadian Dermatology Association's (CDA) annual meeting in Vancouver—and, according to an article for CTV News, they say tanning beds might be behind the rise.

Cheryl Rosen, spokesperson for the CDA, said her organization is lobbying provincial governments to ban tanning beds for people under the age of 18.
