RESISTANCE OF ONTARIANS TO PAY FOR MEDICAL SERVICES

COMMENT. Ontarians pay fortunes for Sports and Toys but think it political  heresy to pay for medical .
care.. Many Ontarians have OHIP supplemented by Private insurance paid by various levels of Government and Unions. Large sums of money are spend on FISHING inc ICE FISHING;; GOLF  (many Municipal Courses)  HUNTING (BOW & RIFLE); ICE HOCKEY, good pads cost $3000; POWER BOATING;(incl JET SKIS)  SAILING;  SKIING (inc SNOW BOARDS), and  SNOWMOBILES. Low OHIP fees for MDs subsidize Ontarians' playtime.

Ontario MDs still have no contract.

The "poor" get free Dentistry; Drugs; Eye`exams and specs;Orthotics (insoles & shoes).;&  transportation.
