Ontario nurses are urging the Harper government to scrap its plans to reduce health care coverage for refugee claimants or face the fact people will die. Ottawa announced in April it will strip thousands of refugees of health-care coverage starting in July unless their conditions pose a threat to public health. […]The changes mean current and future refugees will no longer be eligible for vision, dental or supplemental health benefits while access to prescription drug benefits will be severely curtailed. Also, most refugees would not have access to hospital services or care provided by a nurse or physician, except in urgent situations.
