If we don't take action, disease-modifying therapies will be out of reach for many Ontarians.
We must use our voices to let the Ontario Government know that disease-modifying treatments should be publicly funded, so that people in Ontario have equitable access.
All you need to do is take 2 minutes and enter your:
• First name
• Last name
• Email
• Address, city, and postal code
And click send! This will send a pre-populated letter to your MPP to let them know that access is essential for everyone.
