Porcupine Health Unit Deemed Over-funded by Province

Funding to the Porcupine Health Unit has been frozen.

Ontario has deemed the PHU as over-funded, along with 80 per cent of the rest of the province.

Health units in the GTA have been classified as under-funded because of their population growth.
