Ontario will lot felt 54,444.000 in federal transfer paymciirs because t'f the k,.te•rtimt•nt's support u1 extra•bilhng. This amounts to approximately • S50 million a year being sacrificed while the cost of OHIP premiums to the people of Ontario increases by some Sb9 million annually. The forfeiture of these millions of dollars will continue for as long as the gotvrnment stands firm in its position that doctors have the right to charge additional rtes above those covered 'hi tht Ortta;i; Health Insurance Plan. Extra•billing places a financial impediment on quality health :are fur people in lower income brackets, whit h means. in ettect. that universal access to health care does not exist. which is an intolerable situation. In addition, by forfeiting approximately S50 million each year in penalties under the Canada Health Act, effective July 1, this year. other needed provincial services are negletied. Furthermore, we are not preparing to provide health care for the future.

While in the case of adults, charitable organizations are hard pressed to pick up the lack of government funding for the physically disabled. In the northern part of Ontario. cancer societies are strapped for funds as a result of the significant costs of transporting patients for treatment, a cost which should be borne by OHIP. The idea t'1 creating a birthing centre in Toronto at a rust of some $350,000 a y ear was turned dawn by the government.
