Ontario adop ts no fault auto insurance plan
After months of bitter debate the Ontario Legislature passed a no fault auto insurance law taking effect June 22. More than 90 percent of accident victims lose the right to sue and will receive lost income benefits up to 600 dollars weekly with provisions for rehabilitation and long term care.

Lawrence Mandel of an anti no fault group signals a constitutional challenge.
