Good morning, Chair.
Good morning to everyone. Thank you for being here.
Canada is a very diverse country. As we know, diabetes affects certain communities more than others. For example, South Asians are more likely to develop type 2 diabetes, as are other communities such as the indigenous. What are the unique challenges that Canada faces when trying to develop a diabetes strategy that works for everyone equally? Some communities are facing more challenges than others. What are your thoughts about that?
Dr. Whiteside, perhaps you could start with that.
