Who can get it, and when
From late September, Ontario gives the free flu shot first to high-risk and priority groups — including people at high risk of infection, health-care workers, first responders, staff in long-term care and retirement homes, and members of underserved communities.
From October 26, 2026, it is free for everyone 6 months and older who lives, works or goes to school in Ontario. Ontario especially recommends it for people who could pass the flu to someone at high risk or to an infant, and for household contacts of people at high risk. Bring your health card or insurance details; there is no charge here with OHIP, UHIP, GuardMe, Morcare or other insurance.

Yes, please bring your Ontario health card, or your UHIP, GuardMe, Morcare or other insurance details. With any of these there is no charge for the flu shot here. The only charge is for visitors from outside Ontario who have no insurance, and you are told in person before any fee is charged.
Ontario says the flu shot can be given at the same time as, or any time before or after, other vaccines. Tell the doctor what else you're getting or have had recently, including the RSV vaccine if you're eligible.
The flu shot is recommended for everyone 6 months and older. Children under 2 get it from a doctor or nurse practitioner rather than a pharmacy. Call the clinic before bringing a young child so the team can confirm it can be given here that day.
