As most Ontario hospitals face layoffs and job cuts to balance their budgets, eleven selected hospitals have recently received additional funding, although the funding will not bring all to zero:
- William Osler Health Care: $20 million
- Niagara Health System: $14 million
- Royal Ottawa Health Care Group: $$7.62 million
- Ontario Shores Centre for Mental Health Services: $7.4 million
- Cornwall Community Hospital: $5 million
- Toronto Baycrest: $4.2 million
- Lakeridge Health: $4.14 million
- Quinte Healthcare: $3.5 million
- Penetanguishene Mental Health Centre: $2.1 million
- Cambridge Memorial Hospital: $1.03 million
- West Parry Sound Health Centre: $350,000

I should point out that the biggest recipient, the William Osler Hospital, was Canada’s first general hospital to open as a public-private partnership. This is not the first big bailout for the privatized hospital.
Dear B’s and S’s,
Is anyone surprised that the P3 screw-up receives the first and largest amount of cash?
Hopefully the other recipients are getting operational top-ups.
Ontario Shores received 7.4 million of that funding and yet on March 8th, Glenna Raymond CEO, presented at a staff forum that the hospital was in a deficit of $4 million and that the layoffs will bring down the deficit to $2 million. Since the government is giving $7.4 million in new funding then we are not in a deficit and we should not be laying off much needed staff, execept some of the too many managers we have
What about London ? They need to pay for 2 CEO’s now remember ?
Windsor Regional Hospital has cut staff, programs and have been threatened by their CEO with further cuts to jobs and programs. We have been told by the CEO that top performing Hospitals get rewarded. From the list above, it would appear that Windsor Regional Hospital has not been rewarded by the Province. And the Employees and patients are the ones taking the hit.
It is a bizarre concept that efficient hospitals will be rewarded, and presumably, inefficient hospitals will be punished by not receiving additional funding. Shouldn’t the promise be looking at providing equitable service across the board, rather than making winners and losers of communities have have little to no say in how their hospitals are actually run?
Zero for Huntsville, Bracebridge and Burks Falls.
No extra money for us only cuts to needed services and lay-offs of hospital front line employees.
