have your dad look into Trillium.... it's a plan through the government of Ontario (outside of normal OHIP) that helps to cover required meds for long term and chronic illnesses... it's based on income and helps to cover very necessary drugs that people would other wise have to do without... I know someone who has used it for drugs for MS that would have otherwise cost $1800 a month... they also help cover other drugs not just for MS... he should ask about it anyway... if they don't cover that particular drug he needs to check with his doctor and see if he could go on another one that would work as well that is still covered
