Certain parts of Ontario have reported there is a drop of demand for the H1N1 vaccination. Some clinics still remain open until as late as December 8 for people that want to get their H1N1 shot.
According to Toronto Star, there is a decline in H1N1 infections in Hamilton, Stratford and Windsor in the past weeks. Although, H1N1 infections are less wide spread, healthcare professionals still recommending vaccination for those that have not got theirs yet. A decline in H1N1 infections does not mean that the pandemic is over, it may pick up again in spring.
Healthcare centres such as walk-in clinics and family doctor offices will continue to provide H1N1 vaccination.

Earlier today in Ottawa, the HST has been approved by the house of common for the province of Ontario and British Columbia. Many other provinces in Canada long adopted the HST which is the combination of GST and Provincial Sales Tax.
Many citizens in Ontario are very much angry towards this adoption, and they surely acted on it. Today, there were many protesters marching down University Ave to express their opinion about HST.

The Ceremony even received from Buddhist followers who came from all the way from San Fransisco, California.
The Ceremony started from 9am to 4pm: from receiving foods, monk-talk session in the morning and carried on with the Kathen Parade around the temple in three rounds, and Robes Receiving Session. Buddhist monks, laypeople, youth, and children joined the parade during the sunny afternoon which many believed it had been blessed by God Buddha. To further prove Khmer traditional belief is that "will always be sunny and fair weather for Kathen Day".
