If you were at Toronto’s Dufferin Mall last week, you may have noticed a large pink object planted firmly in front of the Walmart.
Your eyes weren’t playing tricks on you: what you were seeing was a 40-foot long, inflatable colon.
In order to draw awareness to colorectal cancer awareness month, the good folks at ColonCancerCheck,a government initiative, have set up a walk-through colon,complete with polyps and video screens that discuss cancer prevention.
The colon has since departed Dufferin Mall. It will make its next appearance at St. Lawrence Lounge (Queen’s Park) March 17-18. Then it’s off to Lansdowne Mall in Peterborough (March 23-24) before finishing its tour in Pembroke’s Pemboke Mall March 26-27.
