Seven people in Ontario have been fined for refusing transfers from a hospital to a long-term care home not of their choosing.

TORONTO -

A spokesperson for Health Minister Sylvia Jones now says that seven people have actually been fined, but that the ministry was not aware of those cases. Jensen was not immediately able to say when each of those people were fined, if any of them are still being charged $400 daily, or the total amount of their fines.“Ontarians aren't buying it,” she wrote in a statement. “More vulnerable people will be put in this situation if the government doesn't get rid of a law that we in the NDP, experts and families have been telling them is flat-out cruel.
