Scope and content | This file contains a presentation by Donna Lillie that first provides a brief history of diabetes in Canadian Aboriginals. The 1980s and 1990s have seen "a staggering increase" in diabetes in Aboriginals and is occurring at a rate of two to three times that of non-Aboriginal Canadians. A question-and-answer session with the Commissioners follows the presentation. | |
