Thank you, Mr. Chair.
My questions are for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.
First of all, I want to welcome you, Mr. Stimpson. Your testimony was very moving, and it helps us imagine how difficult it is to live with type 1 diabetes. It is our sincere wish that research will make it possible to live better with diabetes and even eliminate it completely.
In the meantime, I think that the proposal made by our colleague Mr. Stewart makes a lot of sense. We will certainly have to look at this issue, and I will certainly support it.
My question is for Mr. Prowten, and I would like to ask him to give us an idea of where the research is at. How does research in Canada compare to other countries? How could the federal government better support juvenile diabetes research?
