Federal Health Minister Jane Philpott had an emotional meeting Monday with some indigenous men from northern Manitoba who were switched at birth more than 40 years ago and only recently found out. Only three of the men involved were able to make it to Monday's meeting. The men require counselling and in some cases addiction treatment, said Eric Robinson, a former Manitoba deputy premier who has been helping the men. (CBC)Health Canada also announced it would offer free DNA tests to anyone born at the hospital before 1980. Health Canada reports 239 babies were born in 1975 at the hospital in Norway House.
