Parents angered by changes to Ontario autism program aimed at cutting wait listOntario is overhauling its autism program in an attempt to clear a waiting list of 23,000 children, but families and advocates say that backlog will be eliminated at the expense of quality of treatment. I am very mad, this was the biggest bait a switch, this has destroyed my funding for my daughter's therapy and people who have no clue about the difference between diagnosis and actual treatment tell me I should be happy. Can anyone give a rational, unemotional answer as to why it is the government’s (society’s) responsibility to provide any special funding at all? Do parents of all other children get the same treatment?

It’s not the hospital its stupid PEOPLE who like to go into the ER for minor issues. Been there. I had a lovely 2 day stay in the hallways of Credit Valley in 2010.
