New Brunswickers Celebrate World Diabetes Day


Today is World Diabetes Day.   This date was chosen because it's the birthday of Dr. Frederick Banting--the man who discovered insulin.
Jake Reid, Regional Director of the Canadian Diabetes Association, tells CHSJ News it's significant with this year being the 90th anniversary since it was discovered.

Reid says Banting has an incredible Canadian story and he encourages everyone to google it and learn more about it.

You are encouraged to drop by level 1 Brunswick Square for a special surprise at 12:30 this afternoon.  For more information, call 1-800-884-4232 or click here
