Ontarians Support Public Health Care

A provincial health lobby group says there's strong support in keeping health care services in Ontario hospitals.

The Ontario Health Coalition says it attracted more than 56-thousand people to a voluntary province-wide referendum over the weekend supporting hospitals and stopping private clinics from being set up to take over those services.

About 99 percent of the people who voted were in favour of supporting local public hospitals and stopping the private clinics.
