Thank you very much.
As you may be aware, the government has recently moved forward with the renewal of the aboriginal diabetes initiative. This is a strategy that puts resources into first nations on reserve and into Inuit communities and attempts to bring awareness and offer prevention strategies for diabetes. So in terms of putting information into the hands of communities, there will be resources there, and there are resources for communities to design programs that are meaningful to them, that are culturally relevant in the appropriate language, that bring the messages to the people in terms of healthy eating, physical activity, and so on. In fact, the Kahnawake project has benefited in the past, I think, from resources from that initiative.
The renewal of the program--I guess it's into its second year now--was $190 million over five years. So this is a significant increase over what has been there in the past, and we anticipate moving forward with comprehensive strategies.
We work closely with the Assembly of First Nations and the Inuit Tapirit Kanatami to bring both programs into place, design program frameworks, and it may be that my colleagues from AFN and ITK may want to speak to that program.
