Over the last year, numerous countries around the world, including the United States, China, South Africa, Brazil, India, Panama, Sierra Leone, Argentina, France, and Spain . Most notably, Pope Francis gave thanks for the lives saved by this strategy and noted such efforts . This is puzzling, particularly as the proposed 9. Target is one of the most significant Canadian contributions to global health in the recent past. Of particular note, First Nations people in Canada are disproportionately affected by the HIV/AIDS epidemic. While First Nations represent roughly 4% of the Canadian population, they accounted for 1. HIV infections and 2. AIDS cases in 2. 01. Equally troubling, HIV- positive First Nations individuals are only half as likely to have access to life- saving antiretroviral therapy as other Canadians. Global matters do not respect election cycles and demand continued attention. It is in this spirit that I am calling on you, Prime Minister, to embrace the 9. Target domestically, and to formally endorse the 9. Target during 2. 01. UNGASS. I similarly encourage you to ensure there is a strong Canadian delegation present at 2. UNGASS to support the 9. Target. In addition, I am calling on our federal electoral candidates to make this an issue, and to carry forward nationwide the successes achieved in BC using Treatment as Prevention. Increasing testing and access to sustained treatment will lead to the elimination of AIDS. This would be a world- leading historical accomplishment. I would be happy to provide you with further insights regarding this issue. Yours sincerely,Julio S.
