  $925 fee gone: Ontario eliminates "head tax"
BY ROBIN HILBORN,
Family Helper editor

(Jan. 13, 2005) After five years of charging Ontarians $925 for some international adoptions, the Ontario government has abolished the fee (see government news release). Minister of Children and Youth Services Dr. Marie Bountrogianni announced that effective Jan. 13, 2005 the government was eliminating its fees on all international adoptions.

For background, see (May 24, 2001)  Ontario keeps $925 adoption "head tax".
