Background The prevalence of diabetes has been increasing greatly, but WHO's predicted 39% rise in the global rate of diabetes from 2000 to 2030 might be an underestimate. We aimed to assess diabetes trends in Ontario, Canada.Methods Using population-based data, including a validated diabetes database from the province of Ontario, Canada, we examined trends in diabetes prevalence and mortality from 1995 to 2005, and incidence from 1997 to 2003, in adults aged 20 years or older.Findings Age-adjusted and sex-adjusted diabetes prevalence increased by 69%, from 5.2% in a population of 7908 562 in 1995 to 8.8% of 9 276 945 in 2005. Prevalence increased by 27% from 6.9% in a population of 8 457 720 in 2000 to 8.8% of 9 276 945 in 2005. Although prevalence rates have remained higher in people aged 50 years or older (7.1% of 3 675 554) than in those aged 20-49 years (3.5% of 5 601391), rates increased to a greater extent in the younger population (94% vs 63%, p
