Health experts are criticizing the Canadian Task Force on Preventive Health Care over its decision to keep the recommended age for routine breast cancer screening at 50, instead of lowering it to 40, which the U.S. is now doing.

Heather Yourex-West looks at how the decision is being justified, how it compares to provincial guidelines and what critics are saying.
