"Basically, they are staying on that tra- jectory," Regional Chair Karen Redman said from an Ottawa gathering of munici- pal leaders. The Progressive Conservative govern- ment tried to force retroactive funding cuts for public health, ambulance and child care this year, but backtracked in May when municipalities said annual budgets had already been passed. Ford announced Monday that some of those changes will take effect Jan. 1. "We recognize our government moved quickly when we came into office to ad- dress our inherited challenges," Ford told the Association of Municipalities of Onta- rio meeting. "But we've listened to you." The new plan will have all municipali- ties pay 30 per cent of public health care costs, whereas before it varied across the province. For child care, municipalities will have to pay 20 per cent of the cost of creating new spaces, which the province previously fully funded. Some funding cuts for administra- tion costs are being delayed by a year or two. The region estimated in its preliminary budget report released last week that fund- ing changes to public health, children's services and paramedic services was esti- mated to have a total annual impact of nearly $12 million. Land ambulance funding will be in- creased by four per cent, which Redman said is only a start at tackling major strains on the system, including increased call volume, off-load delays and an aging population. Redman said the region should get cred- it for what it spends beyond the minimum required for public health and child care, which should help buffer the difference in funding, and children's services will get some transitional funding this year and next. However, she said the province is set on going ahead with cuts and fundamental changes to the way services are delivered. Public health, for instance, will see a major revamp by combining the current 35 health units into just 10. Waterloo Region is pro- posed to be lumped in with three other ar- eas to cover a combined population of al- most three million - the largest public health entity in the province. - with files from The Canadian Press FORD GOES AHEAD WITH CONTROVERSIAL MUNICIPAL FUNDING CUTS JOHANNA WEIDNER jweidner@therecord.com LOCAL
