Ontario Funds Healthcare Training | Toronto News

from Toronto News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Ontario’s pouring $10.9 million into 10 healthcare training programs to prep nearly 2,000 new nurses and personal support workers—boosting critical care roles while helping newcomers rebuild careers. But past funding decisions faced backlash: the Auditor General flagged low-ranked projects and lobbyist ties, sparking an Integrity Commissioner probe. Now, the government vows reforms—prioritizing Auditor General input, tracking long-term outcomes, and requiring full disclosure of lobbying. This isn’t just about filling jobs—it’s about fixing the system to build a stronger, more accountable healthcare workforce for the future.
