Dear Bruce Killah:
Re: Ministry Agreement with The Manitoulin-Sudbury District Services Board Effective the 28th day of January 2014 (the “Agreement”)
I am pleased to advise you that the Ministry of Health (the “ministry”) will provide The Manitoulin-Sudbury District Services Board up to $55,583 in additional base funding with respect to the Land Ambulance Services Grant for the provision of land ambulance services for Territories Without Municipal Organization (TWOMO) for the 2024 calendar year. This will bring the total maximum base funding available under the Agreement for the 2024 calendar year up to $3,020,925 for TWOMO.
I am, therefore, pleased to provide you with a new budget that, pursuant to section 4.2 of the Agreement, shall replace the budget in Schedule “B”. All terms and conditions contained in the Agreement remain in full force and effect.
The Assistant Deputy Minister of the Emergency Health Services Division will write to The Manitoulin-Sudbury District Services Board shortly concerning the terms and conditions governing this funding.
Thank you for your ongoing dedication to the health care needs of Ontarians. Our government will continue to build and strengthen our public health system in your community and across the province.
Sincerely,
Sylvia Jones
Deputy Premier and Minister of Health
