No matter how people try to justify how to answer this question cancer IS a serious disease, anything that puts your body through the stress of radiation or chemo is serious, you can do whatever you want with your application, but I would advice strongly against hiding this, Canada is a honour system and if found out that you lied in your application, the consequences will be worse, I don't think they will reject you at this stage but of course all the details of your father's disease should be detailed in the report that the panel physician sends with the medical test

Just so you are ready, get a letter from the Oncologist indicating the prognosis of your father, that he was treated for X type of cancer, that he is cancer free and he is stable and that there are no indications that he could relapse. Have this letter ready for when you get the medical test and the doctor can attach it to the exam, it's entirely up to the Canadian authorities to determine if it's an excessive demand on the medical system here, not up to you or what people say here

when in doubt just give whatever information you have of ANY medical problem that you have. And then let IRCC decide.

Having said that some of us have experience with treating patients and even doing these medical examinations for immigration and employment purposes and know what conditions are typically what the organizations are looking out for.

But his/her question is if it is supposed to be mentioned on the 5669 form.
For the panel physician, i agree we need to mention this and provide the reports.

i.e. My dad’s case, he had skin cancer almost 6 years ago and was operated and is doing ok.
We mentioned this to the PP on his super visa medical and reporta were provided.

We will mention this to PP on his PGP medical too. But i did not mention it on the form 5669, which I thought is only asking for present serious conditions, may be i misunderstood but for sure there was no intention of hiding it as they already have these details in his super visa’s medicals.

So this user is asking the same thing about his/her mother, if they need to mention it on the form 5669 or it should just be mentioned to the PP once they do the medical exam?

It should be mentioned in the form AND during the exam. If it's not mentioned in the form, it's withholding information which as per the site below could be a reason to be qualified as inadmissible to Canada (see misrepresentation) :

Did your father have Basal Cell Carcinoma? BCC is generally not considered a "serious" cancer.

No, it was melanoma. And i know it is one of the dangerous types of skin cancers.
But i did not mention it on the 5669.
But for sure it is not to hide it, because I have asked my dad to get all the reports from his dermatologist who was following up with him since 6 years, so that we can show this to panel physician.
And it was mentioned to the panel physician and reports were provided to IRCC at that time when he did his medicals for super visa in 2017.
