Pharmacists throughout Huron have been collecting names during the past two weeks in a provincial campaign to ask for a place at the table with the province for both pharmacists and those affected by the proposed changes. The petition gath- ered 511,000 across the province. "This peti- tion is not intended to be an angry thing - it's just meant to be a request to let us pro- vide some input," says Huron County Pharmacists' Association presi- dent Dan Stringer, of Goderich. -} Community Calendar WED.

Space for the Community Calendar is donated by The Huron Expositor. As a pharmacist at PharmaPlus in Goderich, Stringer says he received an enthusiastic response from local seniors to the petition. "We had people coming in looking for the petition to sign. 1 hope every pharmacy in Huron got involved," he says. While phar- macists are not certain about the details of the proposed changes, Stringer says they're con- cerned that they've heard the changes are based on a "reference - based pricing" system used in British Columbia, also known as med- icine rationing, which would see the government paying for the cheapest drug in a range of similar drugs. If patients needed another drug in the same category, they would be forced to pay out of pocket for it. "The fear is that if a drug doesn't work for someone, they will have to pay for a more expensive product if the government strips down the drug plan. Seniors on a fixed income are already seeing a decline in their standard of living with increased hydro rates and the new health tax," he says. A pamphlet from the Ontario Pharmacists' Association that accompanied the petition says the province's pharmacists are "gravely concerned about cut- backs now under consid- eration by the Ontario gov- ernment." T h e "Pharmacists Care" cam- paign is advo- cating for the "most vulner- able" includ- ing seniors and low income earn- ers. Stringer says that the issue affects everyone since everyone will eventually become a senior. "I'd like to know there's going to be a good drug plan for me when I'm a senior," he says. Shaukat Mangalji, of Keatings Pharmacy in Seaforth, says about 20 sen- iors signed the petition at his store. "It's hard to get behind an issue if they don't know what it's about. The idea is to get a forum or a debate going and see if the system works," he says. Helen McLean, a Seaforth senior, says she signed the petition and that she's worried about the proposed cuts to the Ontario Drug Benefit plan. "I'm a senior and a diabetic and the drugs you have to take are innumerable. It I had to pay for my drugs, I could- n't. Most seniors are a quite a few drugs so this is going to affect a lot of people," she says. `We had people coming in look- ing for the peti- tion to sign. I hope every, pharmacy in Huron got involved,'- .
