## Abstract In 1998, we reported that a significant proportion of breast and/or ovarian cancer families of French Canadian descent harbor specific germline mutations in __BRCA1__ or __BRCA2__ attributed to common founders. Here we report the frequency of previously described mutations (__n__ = 7) a
