The tick population in Canada used to be confined to one region of Ontario, on the Long Point peninsula in Lake Erie.

But in the past 10 years, the bugs have spread across the country, carried by the birds on which they feed, and Public Health says doctors should no longer rule out infection because of geographic location.
