Campbell Raises Kenora Man's Plight At QP

A Kenora man's attempt to get treatment for cancer has landed at Queen's Park.  On Monday, Kenora Rainy River MPP Sarah Campbell asked the Health Minister why Wes Bland wasn't approved for a PET scan in Winnipeg.  Deb Matthews claims it was a misunderstanding which has since been cleared up.  Campbell is upset that northwestern Ontario residents still have to get prior approval from OHIP before they can get their test done in Winnipeg.
