A Metro II, operated by SkyCare Air Ambulance departed Thunder Bay International Airport (CYQT), ON destined for Toronto Buttonville Airport (CYKZ), ON. Approximately 20 minutes from CYKZ, and just prior to descent from FL230 the flight crew noted a 10 degree rise in EGT on one of the engines (Garrett, TPE331-10UA-511G).

The inflight shutdown procedure was completed, the crew advised ATC and requested a diversion to Waterloo Regional Airport (CYKF), ON. The aircraft landed in CYKF without further incident.
