Doc House Call Plan Supported

The Liberal candidate for Kenora-Rainy River is standing up in support of a party policy to have doctors make house calls.

Anthony Leek says it makes good sense for this riding where there's a high number of seniors who could benefit.

"I think it's really important that we start to concentrate on taking care of the baby-boom generation which is continuing to age," says Leek, "and I think this is just a step forward to helping that population.

Leek says other Liberal initiatives will help bring more doctors to the area to help fulfill that promise.
