In 46 days the good ol' McGuinty fiberals are delisting physiotherapy services from OHIP coverage. Chiropractic treatments and eye exams for those under 65 were delisted previously. In the meantime they also hit us with a health care premium which is the most regressive tax we've seen in quite some time. Physiotherapy is an essential medical service. In many cases it acts as a preventative measure from muscle deterioration in the elderly. Those of us who play sports and strain or tear muscles or even break bones and rely on rehab will have to pay out of pocket if they don't have private coverage. Same goes for those who accidentally slip on the ice and need treatment. How about those chronic back pain sufferers? This is just plain ludicrous especially when you consider abortions which are not medically necessary are still covered under OHIP. Oct 2007 is a long time to wait to get these liberal clown artists turfed from power.
