OTTAWA -- A group of family physicians has signed an open letter to Lanark—Frontenac—Kingston MPP Randy Hillier, challenging assertions he's made about COVID-19 as misinformation. Hillier, an independent MPP, has been a vocal critic of the Ford government's COVID-19 restrictions and has attended or led rallies against public health measures, including a recent one in Ottawa on Parliament Hill. He was charged under the Reopening Ontario Act after organizing a rally at Queen's Park in November. The open letter appeared in some local media outlets in the Kingston area this weekend. Jeanette Dietrich, a doctor from Sydenham, ON, wrote the letter. Dozens of additional doctors have co-signed the letter in support. Dietrich sent it to CTV News Ottawa on Sunday.
