Homeopathy was regulated up to the early 70's until which time was deregulated due to the lack of Homeopathic Physicians in Ontario.
There is an initiative to re-regulate Homeopathic Medicine by the Ontario Homeopathic Association (OHA) to insure standards and protection of the public from harm.
A recent announcement by the Ontario provincial government has provided the recommendation to re-regulate homeopathic medicine .
