flag Ontario hospitals face collapse as underfunding threatens thousands of jobs and beds.

flag Ontario hospitals, including Hamilton’s, face severe financial strain, with projections of losing 7,263 nurses, 2,457 beds, and 1,784 personal support workers over three years due to a planned 0.7% annual health spending increase—far below the 4% needed to maintain services. flag Hospitals are operating at capacity, leading to overcrowding and reduced care, while Hamilton Health Sciences faces a $152 million deficit and $9.1 million in cuts. flag Despite claims that patient care remains safe, advocates warn systemic underfunding is driving real job losses and service reductions, with long-term care bed availability expected to decline further.
