[news] Toronto Reverses Special Diet Changes

[Resist!ca]

OCAP | OCAP List | July 24, 2005 Less than two weeks ago, top Toronto welfare bureaucrats informed us that they were implementing immediately, two devastating changes to the City's Special Diet Policy.  All those who had obtained the Supplement would be required to get it approved all over again on a new municipal form. Moreover, only doctors would now be able to fill this in.  Nurse Practitioners, dieticians and midwifes would be banned from doing this. On Friday, July 22, OCAP received a letter from Social Services Division General Manager, Heather MacVicar, announcing the City's decision to retreat and call off the attack.
