flag Niagara Health to cut 98–100 frontline jobs despite $717M in funding, citing financial strain and rising demand.

flag Niagara Health plans to cut 98 to 100 front-line jobs despite receiving over $717 million in provincial funding and major infrastructure investments, citing rising costs, patient volumes, and weak community care. flag SEIU Healthcare opposes the move, warning it will worsen emergency wait times—some exceeding 45 hours—and endanger patient safety, especially during the winter surge. flag The union is protesting with a regional car rally on December 17, criticizing management for lack of consultation. flag The province says it is making record investments to improve hospital capacity and reduce waits, but hospitals like Niagara Health still face financial strain.
