I didn't hear about the recent announcement for funding re diabetes &
would appreciate the info you have or may receive. I'm currently
assembling our local information regarding prevalence, programs, costs
etc.  I am trying to understand the types of health care utilization,
the souces of data, coding for databases etc. I have just begun this
process and would be willing to collaborate with others who may be
trying to develop local data.
 The following website of health canada provides an informative report
for a general and national perspective:
