Section 2 of RFC 3326 says

   Proxies generating a CANCEL request upon reception of a CANCEL from
   the previous hop that contains a Reason header field SHOULD copy it
   into the new CANCEL request.

   In normal SIP operation, a SIP status code in a response provides the
   client with information about the request that triggered the
   response, the session parameters, or the user.  For example, a 405
   (Method not allowed) response indicates that the request contained an
   unsupported method.  A 488 (Not Acceptable Here) indicates that the
   session parameters are unacceptable and a 486 (Busy Here) provides
   information about the status of the user.

So this means that Proxies SHOULD forward the CANCEL request that contains 
Reason header.
