The Ontario Health Coalition wants to bring people to the ballot box next month.
It plans to hold a voluntary referendum April 5 as part of a campaign denouncing the privatization of hospital services.
Executive Director Natalie Mehra says they are in the process of getting organized in northwestern Ontario.
Mehra says if certain medical procedures are shift from hospitals to private clinics, patients in northern Ontario would likely be forced to travel out of town more often for access.
