The Mohawk Council of Akwesasne is notifying the community that recently Service Ontario began requiring individuals who hold the old “red and white” Ontario health cards to renew them. Previously, these older-version cards would not expire, and this is no longer the case.
Letters have been mailed to individuals and should not be ignored. After Service Ontario mails three letters without response, the individual’s card will be invalid resulting in a loss of health insurance coverage.
Cards can be renewed by visiting any Service Ontario office or Driver’s License office. In Cornwall, Ontario, there are two locations for renewal: 720 14th Street West, and 113 2nd Street East.
To renew your card please bring the following:
1. Proof of citizenship, such as a passport or birth certificate.
2. Proof of residency, such as a bank statement or other official mail with your address on it.
3. Any ID that contains your name and signature, such as a bank card.
If you have any questions, please contact the Service Ontario information line at 1-866-532-3161.
