This one was one of the recommendations made by them out of the other 31 in their report, which they named as Avoiding Abuse, Achieving a Balance: Tackling the Opioid Public Health Crisis.

Each and every suggestion stated has been made with the intention at cutting the abuse of this drug Oxycontin and of other opioids in Ontario, and the group has already shown a great level seriousness into the matter, since they have involved their own members.

It seems that Ontario is floating in the middle of catastrophe that has stemmed from the improper prescription practices, and unlawful usage of opioids.
