It's important to note that I don't live with diabetes, although it affects many of my family members, and we are Red River Métis.
What I see in my personal family network is that we don't have type 1 diabetes—I did hear the testimony earlier today—but they do live mostly with type 2 diabetes. It's extremely hard to get a CGM device covered when you're a type 2 diabetic, by the way, but that's what we know is needed. If you get calloused fingers and you have a desk job and you're typing all day, you're able to monitor your blood sugar levels so that you have better in-range time.
We also see it with regard to insulin, because some people will ration insulin just to make sure they can put food on their table. I don't think that's a choice that people should have to make when it comes to their health. People should have access to the things they need in a timely manner so they can manage their health in the way they need to.
That's for Métis, non-status and status first nations, Inuit beneficiaries. It's all-encompassing.
