“When the next one hits us, that knowledge is going to be important and I am just worried that we will lose it.”
The Ontario government is shutting down the wastewater surveillance program that has provided early warning for incoming waves of COVID-19 and a growing list of other infectious diseases since it was developed.
By the time it ends on July 31, the program that got its start in Ottawa early in the pandemic will be one of the biggest in the world to monitor the spread of infectious diseases through wastewater. Researchers were told of the decision to end funding last week.
Its closure comes at a time when COVID-19 is again beginning to spread through the world after a lull and when the United States and other countries are ramping up wastewater surveillance programs to warn about the possible spread of H5N1 avian influenza.
The decision to stop funding has come as a shock to researchers who developed the program and to public health officials.
Peterborough’s medical officer of health, Dr. Thomas Piggott, posted on X that he was “deeply disappointed” to learn funding for the wastewater surveillance program had been cancelled.
“This has been critical information not only for COVID-19, but other infectious disease threats (influenza, RSV, MPox, polio and now H5N1) in Ontario,” Piggott posted.

A First Nation in northwestern Ontario that has faced decades of mercury poisoning is suing the provincial and federal governments, arguing they've failed to protect its treaty rights. Asubpeeschoseewagong Netum Anishinabek First Nation — known as Grassy Narrows — filed the lawsuit in Ontario's Superior Court of Justice on Tuesday morning. It argues the governments have violated their duties under Treaty 3 by failing to protect against or remedy the effects of mercury contamination in the English-Wabigoon River system. The allegations in this lawsuit haven't been tested in court. Contamination of the river system dates back to the 1960s and '70s when Dryden's paper mill in northwestern Ontario dumped an estimated nine tonnes of mercury into the water.
