Source: Ontario Health, Time Spent in Emergency Departments, August 2026. Data from the National Ambulatory Care Reporting System, Canadian Institute for Health Information. Times are monthly averages for all patients at each site. Right now: each hospital’s own website, read about every five minutes and hidden when more than 90 minutes old. Hospitals measure their live wait differently. Live waits are estimates, for general information only. They can change quickly and without warning, are not guaranteed, and are not medical advice or a recommendation of one emergency department over another. Your own wait may be longer or shorter, and the sickest patients are seen first.
