TORONTO -- Ontario has introduced legislation that would see doctors' licences revoked if they grope a patient.

Currently a doctor's licence is revoked if they are found to have sexually abused a patient through intercourse, and several other forms of sexual contact, but some sexual touching was not included.

The bill would also ensure a doctor found guilty of such offences by the College of Physicians and Surgeons immediately stops practising.

And doctors who are accused of, or have been found guilty of, sexual abuse could no longer continue practising on patients of one gender only.

The same bill also targets parents who don't want their children vaccinated, reintroducing some measures that died in another bill when the legislature prorogued this year.

Parents who want a non-medical exemption for their kids would be required to attend an education session.
