OHIP is paid for out Federal Transfer payments and Ontario taxes. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ontario_Health_Insurance_Plan
There is an external health premium (aka a tax) that maxes at $900 annually. OHIP generally costs about 10cents of every tax dollar spent in Ontario http://news.ontario.ca/mohltc/en/2012/05/a-real-wage-freeze-...
But it is accounted for in existing personal and corporate taxes.
