I could give you a partial answer but not a full answer. The Canadian Institutes of Health Research comprises 13 institutes, including the Institute of Aging. There is also the Institute of Aboriginal Peoples' Health, which deals with the big challenge of the health of these populations. Right now, discussions are under way between these two institutes to better integrate the health issues of the aboriginal and aging populations and the particular challenges that will arise very soon. It's a concern we have.
For the moment, studies are being done, but not enough. When a gap or a lack of research becomes apparent, the role of the institutes is to support the research in a particular way beyond the good and excellent ideas that Canadian researchers have.
