  • Halton@Home supported over 1,000 patients, including 286 between December 2025 and February 2026.

What critics are saying

  • September 2026 Oakville ER wait times hit 4 hours 58 minutes, signaling chronic congestion.
  • Hiring cooled in 2026, with 3,650 employees and only 16 active postings.
