CLOSER LOOK: How bad is Ontario’s doctor shortage? There’s a map for that

lundi 23 décembre 2024 • Durée 07:08

Send us a text

In cities and towns across Ontario — and at Queen’s Park and Parliament Hill — our journalists work for you. Their mission is to dig for answers and tell you what they find.

This new feature — ‘Closer Look’ — is a chance to hear directly from those dedicated reporters and editors.

Every night, Village Media’s Scott Sexsmith sits down with one of our journalists to explore an important story they are covering. These in-depth conversations go beyond the headlines, helping viewers better understand how we gather the details that land in your local news feed.

On tonight’s episode of ‘Closer Look’: Mapping out Ontario's doctor shortage.

Eliot Frymire is part of a research group that investigates and analyzes primary care in Ontario. Using OHIP billing information, the researchers painstakingly drill down into postal code-based data to find out how many people have a regular source of primary care, what type of care they're getting, and where they're getting it.

His takeaway: "We have a crisis everywhere."

Using that data, The Trillium team at Queen's Park created a map that reveals just how widespread the problem has become.

SEE: Here's where the primary care crisis is hitting Ontario hardest

Some examples? In 2022, the year of the most recent data available on a geographic basis, nearly half of all residents in Sioux Lookout weren't getting regular primary care. Near both Toronto's and Ottawa's city halls, it's about one in three. The same goes for Petawawa in eastern Ontario and a portion of Mississauga near the Pearson International Airport.

Reporter Jack Hauen of The Trillium joins us to break down the data. You can read his previous coverage HERE.

Stay tuned for more episodes of ‘Closer Look’ every weeknight at 7 p.m. You can find all our previous segments HERE.

On tonight’s episode of ‘Closer Look’: A police shooting that could have been prevented.
More than three years after Mathias Bunyan was shot and killed inside his Fergus, Ont. apartment, a coroner's inquest has completed its review of the fatal encounter, which was captured on video by body cameras worn by OPP officers at the scene.

One of the jury's key recommendations is that the body-cam footage — which shows Bunyan being pepper-sprayed, tasered and eventually shot multiple times in the chest — be used to help inform how future police officers are trained on conflict prevention and de-escalation when dealing with a person in a mental health crisis.

Keegan Kozolanka, a reporter at EloraFergusToday, has been covering this story since the shooting occurred. He joins us tonight.

CLOSER LOOK: Is it still worth the drive to Acton?

vendredi 6 décembre 2024 • Durée 08:30

Send us a text

On tonight’s episode of ‘Closer Look’: an iconic Ontario store — famous for its familiar radio ads — is closing down.
Originally established in the 1800s as a warehouse for leather goods, The (Olde) Hide House opened to the public in 1980, selling jackets, purses, furniture and other high-quality goods.
The store's radio ads, featured far and wide, became famous: "It's worth the drive to Acton."
Customers will need to make one last drive if they plan to shop at the store again. The Hide House announced it is closing the doors for good, as soon as all remaining stock is liquidated.
HaltonHillsToday reporter Herb Garbutt joins us on the show to talk about the end of an era.

On tonight’s episode of ‘Closer Look’: the fight to keep a schoolgirl killer locked in prison.

More than 37 years ago, a Grade 9 student named Patrizia Mastroianni was sexually assaulted and stabbed to death inside a high school bathroom in Sault Ste. Marie, Ont. Decades later, her murder remains one of the city’s most notorious crimes.

Sentenced to life in prison with no chance of parole for 25 years, Russell Colwell has recently ramped up his efforts to see the outside world — forcing his victim’s family to fight to keep him behind bars.

Village Media’s Michael Friscolanti joins us to explain the latest developments on the case. You can read his previous coverage HERE and .

On tonight’s episode of ‘Closer Look’: the grocery store you can't actually shop at.

SEE: The DoorDash grocery store where the public isn’t allowed inside

Although it looks like a typical grocery store, this particular outlet in downtown Toronto is anything but. It is not open to the public. It's exclusively for DoorDash customers who use the company's food delivery app.

TorontoToday reporter Kathryn Mannie joins us on the show to explain what residents think about the local grocery store they can't actually enter. You can read her full story HERE.

This new feature — ‘Closer Look’ — is a chance to hear directly from those dedicated reporters and editors.

On tonight’s episode of ‘Closer Look’: a hit-and-run mystery in Northern Ontario.

On Nov. 7, 2023, a 21-year-old woman named Loni Chum was found dead on a street in Moose Factory, a remote island community 320 km northeast of Timmins. More than a year later, her tragic death remains unsolved.

“Loni’s killer is still walking among us in this small community,” her father, Robert Chum, said in a recent interview with TimminsToday. “It's like a story in a movie that hasn't ended yet.”

Police believe Loni was struck by a pickup truck and left for dead, but no suspects have been identified. The reward for any information leading her killer’s arrest now stands at $100,000.

reporter Marissa Lentz-McGrath brings us up to date on the latest developments in the investigation. You can read her previous coverage and .

CLOSER LOOK: Meet the king of Ontario ‘renovictions’

In communities across the province — as well at Queen’s Park and on Parliament Hill — our on-the-ground reporters and editors chase down the answers you need to know.

On tonight’s episode: the most prolific “renovictor” in Ontario.

It’s happening more and more across the province: landlords evicting longtime tenants in order to renovate the property, then rent it to someone else at a much higher price. A tenant advocacy group recently named Michael Klein, a Toronto real estate investor, as Ontario’s “top” renovictor.

Two of our reporters — Taylor Pace of GuelphToday and Joe McGinty of CambridgeToday — dug even deeper into Klein’s business dealings for this investigative feature: ‘How is this legal?’ Meet the king of Ontario renovictions

You can read their full story HERE.

CLOSER LOOK: Why does Doug Ford hate bike lanes so much?

On tonight’s episode of ‘Closer Look’: Pedalling toward a day in court.
Last month, the Ford government passed legislation that allows the province to block municipalities from creating new bike lanes that would overtake a vehicle lane. Bill 212 also gives Queen's Park the power to rip out existing bike lanes — including three in Toronto.

The Conservative government is adamant that bike lanes increase traffic congestion, but a draft of a briefing document prepared for Ontario cabinet ministers — and obtained by The Trillium — warns that the opposite is true.
Work to remove the Toronto bike lanes will not begin until at least March. In the meantime, the charity Toronto Cycle has filed a Charter challenge of the new law, arguing it violates cyclists' right to life, liberty and security of the person.
If the lanes are removed, they argue, “many thousands of Toronto cyclists will be forced to cycle in lanes shared with motor vehicle traffic” resulting in “heightened risk of injury and death."

TorontoToday reporter Aidan Chamandy and Jack Hauen of The Trillium have been leading our coverage of the ongoing story. Chamandy joins us tonight to bring you up to speed on the latest details.

On tonight’s episode of ‘Closer Look’: Her name was Tammy.
Two decades ago, a woman's body was discovered near a highway rest stop between Guelph and Halton Hills. Although her identity remained a mystery for nearly 20 years, the woman's story never faded away, thanks to a roadside memorial installed in 2008.
Earlier this year, GuelphToday reporter Isabel Buckmaster wrote a feature story about Keith Porty, who has spent the past few years meticulously repairing and maintaining the Jane Doe memorial. He also created a sign that he posted on a nearby bench. It encourages visitors to learn more about the case in the hopes someone might have information that could finally solve the mystery.
Six months after that article was published, the OPP announced a major break in the cold case: using a technique known as investigative genetic genealogy (IGG), police confirmed the deceased woman was Tammy Eileen Penner, 41, of Chilliwack, B.C. The OPP believes Penner was the victim of foul play, and have renewed their plea for people to come forward with any information.
Buckmaster joins us tonight to talk about the lingering mystery.
