There's a renewed call for more help to those dealing with the withdrawal of Oxycontin in Ontario. Kenora-Rainy River MPP Sarah Campbell says she raised the need for a substance abuse stategy for First Nations for two months. Health Minister Deb Matthews says she is responding by acting on the recommendations of a panel the government put together on the issue. Matthews says it includes sending more doctors to support a methadone treatment program and strengthen support through Telehealth.
