Diabetes is common in Canada, and over the last decade, the incidence of diabetes has grown rapidly. The Canadian Diabetes Association (CDA) released the 2013 Clinical Practice Guidelines for the Prevention and Management of Diabetes in Canada (CPGs) in April 2013.

Information on how to access the CDA’s interactive online and mobile applications is also provided.
