So Mackenzie Health wants to charge me $30 to print off / email a few sheets of paper to me containing MY medical records. They also said they won't release it unless my doctor agrees that it's okay for me to see it.

This is absolutely ridiculous. Firstly, I'm not a minor. I don't need anyone's permission to see my OWN medical records. Note that this is not something unique to Mackenzie Health. Like many of Canada's ridiculous laws and regulations, this really makes you wonder about the nature of the country you live in.

Secondly, I cannot afford $30. Therefore I am barred from accessing my own medical record that I need for special accommodations.

I tried really hard to not insult anyone or use any curse words but it took a lot of self control. Once again, this is absolutely ridiculous.
