Brothers & Sisters,
With more than 5000 signatures, the petition to demand the federal government enforce the Canada Health Act in Ontario still has room to grow!
This petition to the federal government, demands that they enforce the Canada Health Act in Ontario where the current government is violating it with their private clinics.
In the for-profit clinics, elderly patients are routinely charged thousands of dollars when they go in for cataract surgeries. The Canada Health Act bans user fees and extra-billing, but it only works if we demand that the federal government enforces it so that provinces that violate the bans are shamed into coming back into compliance.
The goal is to reach 10,000 signatures this week, then double that again next week. There are less than three months to get hundreds of thousands of signatures to make this effort matter. Please sign and share the petition as widely as possible to family, friends and neighbours.
