The Canadian PPL is still somewhat behind the FAA PPL...with regards to freedom and privileges. Australia have only just allowed solo flight with IDDM on the condition you use a continuous glucose meter...prior to this it was with a safety pilot at all times!
Stephen Steele who is a type 1 IDDM airline pilot for air Canada... regularly flies in and out of Europe at the helm of a 777.... despite no european country certifying any IDDM airline pilots!
