Andrea Horwath would like an inquiry into the closure of Hamilton's Forensics Pathology Unit.
The provincial NDP Leader says her party is standing alongside CUPE Ontario, calling for an independent investigation into why and how the Ford Government made this decision.

The lab handles autopsies for Hamilton, Niagara, Norfolk, Brant and Dufferin.
