The scandal at Cancer Care Ontario comes as the province’s auditor-general revealed a $1 billion spending scandal at eHealth. That scandal has caused the resignation of Health Minister David Caplan, as well as former CEO Sarah Kramer, and Chariman Alan Hudson. The Ontario government’s internal audit was released October 7, 2009, the same day the auditor general brought in his report.
Cancer Care Ontario is an organization operating at arms-length from the Ontario government responsible for the conduct of cancer treatment.
