In preparation for Celiac Awareness Month in May, I thought it was a good time to find out what's been happening rcently with Celiac Canada. The organization is celebrating its 50th birthday this year and along with events in May, there are lots of opportunities to learn and get involved.

To raise awareness of economic issues and the under-diagnosis crisis, Melissa will be on Parliament Hill for a breakfast event on May 30th in an attempt to capture the attention of our Members of Parliament. Gluten free food fortification and the upcoming grocery rebate are all topics up for discussion.

Good news has come through from the Province of Ontario that going forward the blood test for celiac disease will now be covered under provincial OHIP.

Julie tells us about Webinar Wednesdays during May, and an opportunity to "Ask the Expert" at the Gluten Free Garage at the end of May in Toronto.

Lots is going on during the month of May including light up events across Canada, along with meetings, meals and informal get togethers. To find out more you can go online to www.celiac.ca and look up events.
