In a news release issued Wednesday, the Progressive Conservatives said the offering of French language characters on the ID card is part of their plan to make the lettering available on all government identification.“We are supporting Ontario’s Francophone community and improving their experience when accessing vital government services throughout the province, including health care,” Minister of Health Sylvia Jones said in a statement.
“Franco-Ontarians can now have their name correctly identified on their health card in addition to their driver’s licence and photo card.” Those who want a new health card can visit a Service Ontario office to request a free replacement. Residents must have proof that their name includes French language characters in an official document proving citizenship, such as a Canadian passport or birth certificate.

Jones comments on hospital staffing crisisOntario Health Minister Sylvia Jones says the shortage of health-care workers in Ontario is not unique to the province, but a global issue. they should try paying them more. what bullshit. it's not a global issue. it's just an issue in countries that didn't bother taking proper care of its medical personnel. the ontario gov't has done us all dirty by letting this happen Ontario barely had enough medical staff pre-pandemic. But firing them for a personal choice during a pandemic wasn't the smartest. Maybe they should hire them back, oh but wait. If they did then they would have to admit they were wrong to do fire them in the 1st place.
